It's been going on for more than a year now. Every Saturday from 11:00am
to Noon, the WebGuys and WebGrrl Dana  have been
hitting the netwaves and airwaves to talk about the Net.
seattle.internet.com dropped by the radio studio recently, to get an
on-the-air view of the show.
Seeing the talented radio team at work up close, it is clear that they
are interested in both educating the public about the Net and having some
fun at the same time.
So who are the WebGuys and the WebGrrl? Rob Greenlee is the director of
marketing for Tacoma-based ShopperBox.com and Mitch Ratcliffe is VP of
content programming & editor-in-cheif of On24.com. WebGrrl Dana is no
other than Dana Greenlee, president of Tacoma-based LoudVox.com
And how do these busy industry executives incorporate a radio show into
their weekly routine? For Ratcliffe, it is all about the information
runway. He flies back to Seattle every weekend from his current job
location of Silicon Valley. For the Greenlee husband and wife team, it's an
opportunity to always be up-to-date. "Getting ready for the
show...gives me a great excuse to take the timeout necessary to always be
aware of the latest industry trends," says WebGrrl Dana.
Their show webtalkguys is
broadcasted througout the Puget Sound on 1180 AM KLAY. It also reaches
listeners as far as Australia through the show's streaming audio version.
Tomorrow the radio team will be talking with InfoSpace's Tasha Irvine
about search engines and PayByCheck.com CEO Ron Ehli about...you guessed
it: Paying Online.
Looking ahead, Rob Greenlee hopes to syndicate the show to more stations
throughout the U.S. and form key alliances with streaming
