Hello. This is Ben Rowe’s website.

Hi, I’m Ben. I’m a Melbourne-based web addict. A nerd, if you will. I Iive and breathe the internet. I get giddy when I look at a great website or application. Currently I’m the Product Manager for insermo, an email, SMS and Social marketing tool – the first startup that I’ve worked for. My role combines my interests of User Experience and Marketing. I spend my waking hours trawling the web, experiencing great user-experiences first hand. I think this is crucial in our line of work. I have been writing this blog (on and off) since 2005. It’s my online scrapbook of ideas, links, occasional rants and off-tops posts. Thanks for stopping by. Read a blog post or two, or get in contact! Here are just a few of the projects that I’ve worked on.

insermo

My day gig is the product manager for insermo, a web application that allows businesses and organisations to send email and mobile campaigns. I wear a few hats at insermo : Board member, Heads up the Customer Experience team, and Product Manager / User Experience Designer for the Insermo application. Visit insermo

ThinkSmall

I also moonlight with some freelance web consulting – specialising in UX / IA and the like. Check out thinksmall.com.au for more info on that one.

i vote for art

“I vote for art” is an online art community and e-commerce store that I created and launched in 2008. The concept behind i vote for art is fairly simple. Add great artists from around the world, and provide a place to sell their work affordably.

I launched ivoteforart.com in May 2008, with the help of Thirst Studios. I highly recommend working with them.
