Preaching From The Social Media Pulpit

November 18th, 2009 at 11:44 am » Comments (0)

I have been preaching about blogging for a long time.  I have been an evangelist and telling companies that they had to blog more they had to have a place for people to "join the conversation" and making it possible for them to connect with their customers.  Like some of the preachers of the past, [...]

I have been a huge fan of BusinessWeek since I can remember.  I am also a big fan because of the likes of Stephen Baker who I have been reading in the blogosphere for quite some time as well.  I found Stephen’s post related to How to Fix BusinessWeek at his The Numerati blog and [...]

One of the things that most of the local people here discuss is its diversity.  Many of the differernt cultures all come together be it tahitian, polynesian, portugese, japanese, chinese or other ethnic backgrounds, they all have their own language, philosophy and look.

I stood on the bow of the catamaran and the wind and salt cleansed my face of stress and renewed my belief that you can truly feel the tension leaving your body. I was quiet except for the sea and the beauty before me.   I cannot begin to describe the surroundings and the feeling, so [...]



Drinking From The Paradise Firehose

May 28th, 2009 at 6:53 am » Comments (0)

I always make fun of drinking from the "social media firehose." People always ask how I can possible follow nearly 8,000 people on Twitter, and read 10,000 RSS feeds a week, and on and on. I have developed the skill over time.  Being here in Hawaii is a lot like drinking from the Paradise Firehose.
Last [...]

Barcamp Miami A Hit No Matter What was Thrown At Me

February 22nd, 2009 at 4:40 pm » Comments (2)

Miami Vice, CSI Miami, these are the things that I refer to when someone talks about the location.  I look back to what I have seen on television. Today as I sat on the front steps of a location in Coconut Grove, Florida, (I was told I couldn’t call it Maimi) I had visions of [...]
