Last Friday morning, I sat down for a conversation at a local Starbucks with Aaron Strout, VP of social media at Mzinga and one of the five men whose consulting time is up for grabs in the “buy yourself a social media guru” charity auction that Bay Area business communicator Jennifer Leggio has organized.

Aaron and I are friends (full disclosure: I also do podcast production work for Mzinga, and my employer, Monster, is a Mzinga client), and we had planned for a discussion of two or three hot topics in social media. But the auction talk was just too good to cut short! Listen below:
