After starting Blogads, the first social media ad network, in 2002, I got to work on viral campaigns for clients like PETA, the Obama campaign and Audi. And I helped movie studios do giant ad integrations on pop culture landmarks likeĀ PerezHilton.

On top of raising more than $270,000 for Black Voters Matter, the Womxn Run the Vote virtual relay race, sponsored by Oiselle and Run 4 All Women, unleashed thousands of social media posts.

The selection focuses on Twitter and Instagram because most Facebook posts are private.
