Hi, I'm Aaron Richard. You might remember me as that guy from some website who goes by the name "Ralph The Magician."

I live and work in New York City. I design. I code. I like to create things. I like radio, tea, and sailboats.

This is one of my blogs. I use this to showcase some of the things I've worked on that I think others might find particularly interesting. I maintain two other blogs: Blogs by Magic & Rants by Magic.

You can learn more about me, follow me on Twitter, or send me an email.

Twitter is still something of a mystery to those of us in advertising and marketing. Everyone thinks they need to be on top of it, but no one is completely sure now to use it. Even fewer people have an idea of how to measure whether or not they’re using it effectively. Most of the time brands think about Twitter like this: Create an account, start tweeting, and then measure success by looking at how many followers we have. But that doesn’t tell you the whole story. In fact, that tells you almost nothing.

UPDATE: This post, along with a short interview, was recently posted on the BBH Labs blog.
