Mad Thoughts

Station Identification (July 2010 edition)

You are now reading madthoughts.net, a Tumblr blog by Jason Cooper.

I can also be followed on Twitter (@jrcooper), befriended on Facebook, and networked with on LinkedIN.

My work is in online communications, specifically online community and social media. I strongly believe in the power of online connections, especially in how they can support causes and volunteerism. I think the social web can be an amazing tool for educating and empowering individuals on what they can do to help change the world around them.

I work for KaBOOM!. KaBOOM! is a national non-profit with the vision of a great place to play within walking distance of every child. We believe play is important. In addition to building playgrounds, we empower communities via online tools and community to organize their own neighborhoods in support of play.

I’m getting married in October 2010. I’m originally from Detroit, MI but I live in Washington DC. I’m an avid consumer of comic books and Chuck Taylors. I have a cat Jack that I adore.

Ask me anything.
