How is it December already? That’s just crazy talk! That can only mean one thing – it’s time for the December edition of “Yellowtrace Spotlight”.

By the way, The Loop recently won ‘Best Enterprise’ at the AIMIA Awards (which is a really, really big deal). Congrats guys, and thank you Pip for this incredibly generous and useful post…

So… have you heard about The Loop already? Everyone is talking about it. If you haven’t – I’m here to fix that. And if you have – I’ve got a real treat for you as I’m about to share an interview with Pip Jamieson, who is one of its founders.

The Loop is an Australian-based job networking and folio building site for creative professionals spanning across advertising, design & architecture, styling, digital media, film, music, performing arts, photography, publishing, television & radio, and other visual arts fields to name a few. The site itself represents a new kind of online networking platform that incorporates rich multimedia with aspects of increasingly popular social networks such as LinkedIn, Twitter and Facebook. Their tag-line is “Facebook is for your personal life & The Loop is for your creative professional life – never the two shall meet!” Brillant…
