Ray Peabody
Ray became an early convert to the Web, transitioning from a career in traditional advertising. With early stage AOL he hosted its first coverage of the Olympics in 1996, the first live online chat with a U.S. Speaker of the House and was a senior member of the team that launched Digital City (now AOL Local). Moving over to media giant Cox Enterprises, Ray was integral to the creation of Cox's network of local content and special interest websites focusing on its broadcast properties; harnessing the synergy of broadcast and online. Seeing the emergence of online real estate, Ray joined leading publisher NCI and built its Online Division. LivingChoices.com became a top 20 real estate portal with extensive alliances and a 55 million audience reach. While building LivingChoices.com, Ray became one of OnBoard's earliest and longest-standing clients. Now a consultant, Ray provides counsel to clients for their corporate development and online initiatives in Georgia, New York and California.
