Interview with @nakedpizza

I had heard of great things that NAKED Pizza was doing with social media and Twitter in particular. A take-out and delivery pizza restaurant, NAKED Pizza made the bold move of replacing the standard signage in front of their establishment with a new one that only lists their Twitter address as a means of contact.

On my trip around the nation I made a stop in New Orleans JUST to interview this forward-thinking company. NAKED Pizza makes, in their opinion, the world's healthiest pizza. After the interview I took a pizza for the road and would have to agree with their claim. NAKED Pizza has attracted the attention of major investors in their efforts to expand nationally.

Be on the lookout for their amazing pizza in your neighborhood soon. To keep up on their expansion and how they are much different than your regular pizza joint (probiotic and prebiotic dough, ingredients grown on-site, etc.) follow them on Twitter at @nakedpizza.

Interview with @joshcharles

Josh Charles wrote a song, "Healing Time", to raise awareness about the healing that is taking place in New Orleans after the destruction caused by Hurricane Katrina. Josh partnered with Preservation Resource Center of New Orleans (PRCNO) to help raise money for their efforts to build green homes and businesses in New Orleans.

All proceeds from the sale of this song on iTunes and Amazon go to PRCNO. Josh is trying to raise $1 million dollars by September 29.

Follow Josh in his efforts at @joshcharles. Buy the song on iTunes or Amazon by visiting Josh's website.
