Jason calls out on one of his favorite whipping boys, PayPerPost:
No one likes to be deceived and PayPerPost’s “disclosure policy” is a total joke. They don’t require folks to place disclosure at the top of the blog posts–which I predict the government will force them to do–but rather have folks put a badge somewhere on […]

I was reading on GigaOM, that Michael Gartenberg didn’t last at Microsoft and has returned to his rightful (writeful?) place at Jupiter Research which to me seems odd.  Even I can last a little longer than a week at a job.  It takes me that long to remember where the washroom is and where they […]

It has been irritating me all day like a piece of popcorn caught between my teeth.  No matter how much I ignore the issue it doesn’t seem to go away.  I am of course talking about the now well known email from Ted Murphy, to Gawker Media’s ever popular site Gizmodo.  At first I thought […]

As we discussed earlier as our client Freight and Shipping, Inc., has used their new blog marketing program to increase their organic search, more and more companies are using the new social marketing as a way to increase their SEO and the marketing campaigns they are implementing.  Jennifer Jones at Podtech.net has a great interview […]

Well it looks like the caveman has signed a deal with ABC making my attempt to copy and plagiarize GIECO’s advertising campaign moot.  I wanted so badly to have the caveman tapping away at his keyboard, making fun of Robert Scoble, linkbaiting, Digging, and perhaps even signing up to work for clamshells at PayPerPost!  How […]

Paul Scrivens on Wisdump has started (continued?) the conversation/meme that blog networks have failed:

Henry Copeland today answers the flippant quip by Jason Calacanis that Henry is a puppy that can’t get off the porch to run with the big dogs.  This in an interview posted on Valleywag:

Q. So, poor Henry Copeland [of Blogads]. You’re finally coming after him.
A. That’s like Michael Jordan going after a 12-year old […]

I was looking through my email this morning and an article by eMarketer.com about what is working in online marketing.  The article goes into some details about what was done in 2005 and in 2006, but towards the end of the article, they provided an interesting graph about the results of their survey.

The ad spend for […]

As I ran through the blizzard to the mailbox to check whether any huge checks were in the mail that could allow me to vacation in a warmer climate, I was only disappointed as more bills were delivered.  The disappointment was only short lived as I chucked the invoices into the pay attention later pile […]

No, this is not intended to be the title of a new social media press release, it merely goes to show how I felt today a I carried on three Skype chats with people from different corners of the globe.  It amazes me how the use of the Internet can grow a business from my […]
