We've started a new sports federation, as some of you might have noticed, so we are thrilled to welcome Ed Curry to FM as our new Western Sales Director. Bernie Albers, who formerly held that position, has been kicked upstairs to VP Sales. Chas, who was formerly that role, has taken on the role of Publisher (and I'm now just a lowly Chairman/CEO).

Ed brings ten years of advertising experience to FM, with eight of those years in online sales. Prior to FM he worked at Time Inc, initially with SportsIllustrated.com and most recently managing the west coast sales of People.com. Before Time Inc., Ed worked at leading web sites such as CBS Sportsline and RedHerring.com. He has worked with many top brands across the auto, entertainment and tech industries.

Ed is originally from Connecticut and now, conveniently, lives in Sausalito.

If you've noticed we seem to be hiring great folks to scale up our sales efforts, you'd be right....we're up to 18 in sales, a few more introductions are coming...
