  • Tara Hunt (born in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada) is an author, speaker and marketing consultant. Tara obtained a degree in Communications and Cultural Studies at the University of Calgary. In 2002, she founded a small, award-winning marketing brand called "Rogue Strategies". She moved, along with her business, to Toronto, Ontario before moving to San Francisco in 2005. Tara then moved to Montreal, Quebec in July 2009. Tara was hired by the San Francisco based visual search engine Riya to lead their marketing efforts. She left Riya as of June 5, 2006, a mutually agreed decision as her interests outgrew Riya's while Riya began traditional marketing activities. In June 2006, Tara coined a movement of "post-cluetrain" marketing called Pinko Marketing. Pinko Marketing picked up where The Cluetrain Manifesto left off, changing the focus from company to consumer marketing to consumer-to-consumer marketing. Tara is widely known for several recent projects in marketing and community-building, and her book, The Whuffie Factor. Tara was instrumental in making BarCamp a worldwide phenomenon, with events in over 30 countries in its first year. Tara has been one of the lead bloggers on a very popular Canadian online portal One Degree. She also played and continues to play a large part in the growth of the Coworking movement. Hunt was featured with her ex-boyfriend and business partner, Chris Messina, in "So Open it Hurts", in San Francisco Magazine (August, 2008). The article detailed their very public and open relationship shared on the internet, and the lessons they derived from that experience.
