Ditto, A Social Media Venture
This is an alumni talk and recruiting event.
What can machine vision see in the 300 million photos uploaded to Facebook everyday? And what if the content of every Facebook photo linked to Wikipedia, YouTube and Amazon?
Serial entrepreneurs David Rose and Josh Wachman ’90, SM ’96 have conceived, developed and sold several companies individually and through a long standing collaboration. Driven by imagination and a tenacious vision for what could be, the pair has developed products and businesses spanning healthcare (Vitality), consumer products (Ambient Devices), interactive TV (WatchPoint Media), on-line photo sharing (Opholio) and interactive media (iFactory). Come hear about their new venture in social media called Ditto.
We're looking for students and alumni with programming skills and an interest in social media, image processing and graphics. We are recruiting interns and staff.
This is a technical recruiting event and pizza will be served.
