Follow ICANN CEO Rod Beckstrom on Twitter

Keep up-to-date on new CEO via Twitter.

New ICANN CEO Rod Beckstrom is certainly a different type of businessman than former CEO Paul Twomey. As an entrepreneur and having published his own book, Beckstrom is a marketing guy. That means he’s more visible in cyberspace than his predecessor.

One example is Twitter, where Beckstrom provides updates as @RodBeckstrom. Earlier today he tweeted:

Attending #ICANN operational management meeting. Amazing range of projects and activities I’m learning about. Stimulating and fun.

and on July 5:

Reading through mountain of excellent materials given to me by Paul Twomey, former CEO of #ICANN & now Sr. President. Thanks Paul!

Now this isn’t exactly earth shattering, but it’s a big step up in visibility. It also means that Beckstrom is accessible. Will that translate into a different mentality at ICANN? Only time will tell.

    I guess a lot will depend on his workload, but the last ICANN board meeting had several board members tweeting from the podium
