The Open Text Twitterectory
November 12, 2010

At Open Text Content World 2010, there was a big push to get our partners, and employees, turned on to social media. We invited Mike Whitmore and Brent Dance of Fresh Consulting to talk to the FDDG partners and show them how important social media is to us. And while Mike and Brent demonstrated how one can find people to follow, I realised that we didn’t have any sort of directory of Open Text Twitter Personas anywhere….at least, not that I know of.
What follows is a list of Open Text employees who are sharing the limelight with me on Twitter. Find the people you know and others you’d like to hear from. I have organized it alphabetically by first name, linked to their Twitter page, and included a brief description of their role and what group they are in. If you notice I have forgotten anyone, add a comment and I will update the page. I have included only public information from their Twitter or Web pages, but the advantage is that they are all listed in one place. To easily follow them all, just use a list under my name: http://twitter.com/#!/Technovangelist/otpeople
Again, if you have any comments, or you work for Open Text and I forgot to include you, leave a comment below.

Good to know that we live up to what we talk every day – count me in: @jthos
When I created this page, I wondered if someone might object and make me take it down. Happy to see so many of my OT colleagues want to be on here. I haven’t gone more than a couple days without an update to the page adding more of y’all (sorry, little bit of my years in Tallahassee, FL coming out).
Great list, Matt! As an update, I’m coming on board from StreamServe and will be working with Lubor and Rich Maganini on U.S. Public Relations. In addition, I’ll be taking on Stephanie’s responsibilities for overseeing social media strategies for OpenText. While I have not yet been given an “official” title yet, you can list me for now as U.S. Public Relations and Social Media Strategist. I am based in Boston and my Twitter profile is: @petergorman. Thanks!
