I was on a conference call with Eric Rice last night and reading feeds, and listening to Chris Pirillo’s live streaming and refreshing my Twitter page.  As you can tell, my media consumption is evolving into something that would make Orwell happy about "Big Brother".  I have given "multitasking" a new definition, and my ADD […]

This is very cool.  My partner Tris is live blogging this conference for the fine folks at Blog World Expo.  While I’m watching and keeping up with the event sessions as live blogged by Rick and Tris, I am able to watch it live streamed via Jeremiah Owyang’s Ustream.tv page.  In addition, I was able […]

It is being widely reported, or actually Twittered, that DoubleClick has been purchased by Google for $3.1 Billion today.  That is a significant sum, and I think a good purchase by Google.  Tris and I both contribute to Business Blog Consulting, owned by Rick Bruner.  Rick works at DoubleClick and we congratulate him on the […]

As I sat looking at Twitter last night and reading through my RSS feed reader, I saw that Chris Pirillo was streaming a live broadcast on Ustream.tv.  As he was getting things set up for his live show, Robert Scoble sent out a message that Mexico City had an earthquake.  Immediately Chris saw the message […]

David’s post on this is very, very interest and gives us all some insight into what is coming:
So it […]

I have been trying to determine how to continue talking about the Kathy Sierra incident without whipping a dead horse and without adding to an already overzealous echo chamber, or to provide fodder for the angry mob.  I have seen many talk about this issue, and I have seen some very good ideas and opinions […]

I wanted to let everyone know that I am still researching and doing some reading on the issues and events of last week involving Kathy Sierra and the misogynistic blog posts and the threats via email.  I was contacted by Chris Locke, and we exchanged some emails, and I will be speaking to him further […]

Before I continue with my address of my following of the Kathy Sierra incident, I wanted to alert everyone to the fact that Kathy has closed comments on her post and has provided an update of her current state.  I had an internal debate as to whether, given her comment and reasoning behind closing comments […]

Tris and I have been Skyping back and forth about the latest post by Kathy Sierra where she discusses death threats among other things that have recently surfaced.  At first I was so shocked I didn’t have words, then I was pissed, and yes I don’t often get pissed.  As I read through the post, […]
