I run a boutique branding agency in irvine focused on social media and networking. I also do many traditional jobs, but most of my clients these days are social networks and web 2.0 sites.
Check out www.sabet.com for more info and let me know if you would be interested in talking further.

I don't think I told you that I also built a ground up social network for character designers a few years back with VC funding called www.mojizu.com (it's at about 40,000 members now and growing) So I know how to nurture and grow these communities..and I love doing it. If interested please let me know, and maybe we can meet.
