About

Hello! I’m Mona.

I started out in product at a huge software corporation, then fell into digital marketing. I’ve been a part of some neat campaigns for music and entertainment properties. I’m humbled every day I turned what I love into a paying job. In my free time I am an advisor to several start-ups, mentor and consultant.

That’s me. About this blog.

Well. PixelBits started because of FriendFeed (backstory is here), where I spent down time posting random photos, links, and articles. After several weeks of FriendFeeding, I was chosen for a spot on some big deal website: http://frienderati.alltop.com/ then PixelBits appeared on a super big deal site called Techmeme a few times. A random post or two was picked up by Reuters and the NY Times… a monster shock for me, since I am FAR from a writer…but anyway, that’s how my social media journey started.

Fast forward to 2013 and I’m who I was in 2009: a simple girl, addicted to the Internet, constantly exploring the intersections of technology, content and how that all connects with people.

PixelBits has evolved to exactly its name, bits of pixels — random thoughts on social networking, technology, personal thoughts, and things I find interesting.

Find me around the Internet – all of my social profiles are here.
How I Use Twitter (since a lot of people ask me the same questions over and over) is explained here.

ps: You do not want to be my friend. Really.
pps: Yes, I have a day job and people I respect, think I’m legit. (1, 2)
