Jake Baillie Managing Director

I'm young and have been working on the Internet for about 10 years. Sometimes I feel like I've been in search forever, but really it's been only about 5 years. The best compliment I ever received was from Greg Sterling, who called my company "the local search engine with the best sense of humor".

I embrace rebellion, capitalism and economic activism. I loathe inefficiency and bureaucracy. I work best in small teams and think of myself as a much better charismatic leader and evangelist than a manager.

I have an ego, am outspoken, and will offend you at least once as you get to know me.

Interesting Positions I've Held:

• Technical Support, Network Engineer, and Senior Network Architect for an ISP in Cleveland
• VP of Search Marketing for a advertising and marketing consultancy headquartered in Chicago
• General Manager and then President for a local search engine headquartered outside of Toronto

What I Do On Weekends:

• Fly airplanes
• Travel
• Gamble
