I was chatting with Jim last night about his whole Adobe post.  There was a bit of a tempest in a tea pot around it pretty much saying Jim wasn’t doing his homework when he said this:
I can tell you what they are not doing, they are not having a conversation with the influential people […]

This is really a rhetorical question, you know what I’m going to say already, of course.  I talked a bit about PPP and our own B4H last week, recently though I’ve been thinking about the companies who have chosen PPP as their path to blog buzz nirvanna and whether they would be better off just […]

So I’m listening to my local Jack station in Victoria and Hugh Dixon is talking about that new book by Michael Keren that I blogged about yesterday.  Hugh, like me, thinks it it’s a crock and points to the blog for the morning show guys AJ and Crash and their recent post on spanking.  I […]

Shel Israel reminded me of a story that occurred last spring involving a blogger, Lance Dutson, and the Maine Office of Tourism.  My partner Tris blogged about this unfortunate event on his own blog and it was also spread throughout the blogosphere.  As Shel reports, the blogger seems to be the last man standing.  I’m […]

I recently wrote a quick post at Business Blog Consulting about Google allowing users to now use private domains and use the Blogger service. It’s a great move by Google and I applaud their decision. As part of my reasons for praise I indicated:

Reading Kevin Hillstrom’s take on Coldwater Creek: The Little Engine That Could, made me begin thinking about catalogue companies and their online marketing campaigns.  This is the season for catalogues to begin showing up in our bathrooms of the house with circles around those things in each that are on our respective wish lists.  Somehow […]

I was reading an article that Shel Israel wrote about his recent experience with getting Internet access and paying an exorbitant fee. I also had a recent experience with Internet access, but it was not in some far away land or exotic port such as Shel describes. It was in the good ol’ U S […]

I have to hand it to art2blog, for their ingenious title of their latest article "$15,000 For A Story On Digg."  It amazes me the way companies want to scam the system or to get results with the least amount of work.  I suppose its the American way to buy results instead of working for […]

This was a last minute decision on our part but we will be attending the Blog Business Summit in Seattle from October 25, 27, 2006 in Seattle, Washington. We intend to meet as many people as possible there and possibly meet some old friends and people that evangelize blogging as we do. Please come […]
