Maggie Cook and Brad Colbert, Facebook, Texas State SMC, April 7, 2011




Social Media Club of Texas State University welcomed Facebook representatives Maggie Cook, user operations analyst, and Brad Colbert, platform operations analyst, on Thursday to discuss the inner workings of the social media giant. Both Cook and Colbert work at the Austin office which manages solely online operations.


“My boyfriend and I moved to Texas to take jobs at Facebook and Gowalla,” Cook said. A social media power couple.

The Facebook crew spent a few minutes describing their backgrounds and roles at Facebook then left the discussion open for questions.




“The number one question we get asked is if we are on Facebook at work,” Colbert said. “Of course we are. We use our own platform to communicate with users, Facebook offices around the world and update the site.”
