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, […]

I have heard Robert Scoble a couple of times this week say that at Microsoft they did research that showed that 3% of people out there went beyond page 1 of search results in their searches performed.  This can be very scary if you are a small business and want to gain customers on the […]

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 […]

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 […]

The money I spent on attendance and as a Silver Sponsor for the Blog Business Summit was more than worth it and I would recommend that if you had reservations about sponsoring the event, let me be the one to tell you it’s one of the best business decisions I’ve made this year, and I […]
