I’d really like to know how many others out there think GoGoInflight is a no-go, lame-o, rarely-works-o service?
I’ve tried GoGo perhaps 20 times (yeah, I know the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result). [...]
I found this bit of wisdom, attributed to Phil Windley, the other day and found it worthy of consideration and proliferation.
Six Rules of a Purpose-based Web
1. Purpose is more important than Location.
2. Freedom is more important than Control.
3. Context is more important than Content.
4. [...]
Bringing Money Back Down to Earth
Oodles of money zip around electronic banking networks every minute of every day. The movement is so quick, the transactions so frequent, the companies so complex, and the forms those investments take so myriad, the average investor has lost track where their money is and for what it’s being used. [...]
This story gives whole new meaning to the term “bank robbery.” But I fear my words are a mere fart in the gale force winds of banks being banks.
I was recently turned down on a re-fi for my primary residence. I have paid faithfully and timely on my current loan for 5 years. [...]
Mobile vigilantism is just around the corner.
I just read the announcement on CitySourced joining the ranks of the TechCrunch50. Here’s a perfect example of technology poised to make bad situations worse.
I’m all for the use of this kind of technology for *city employees* to help cities manage their cities, but that’s not what’s going [...]
All companies are media companies.
By any definition, every aspect of the operation of an enterprise is dependent on the exchange of ideas and information via different media. PowerPoint decks, television commercials, written reports, verbal presentations, contracts and even the lowly invoice… every department of every company requires some level of literacy in the use [...]
When individual initiative trumps institutional stupidity, I rejoice.
I live in Park City, Utah, and as Salt Lake City survived the Delta-Northwest merger and remains a Delta hub, I fly Delta alot. On an April 2009 overnight trip to Los Angeles, I (stupidly) left my Kindle2 in the seat-back pocket.
It was a jam-packed trip, [...]
Less: Accomplishing More by Doing Less by Marc Lesser
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
My first thought was this was going to be a preachy book. Perhaps a bit holier-than-though. But I was pleasantly surprised.
Some of the advice is a re-hash of well-worn adages and tenets we’ve been exposed to in previous works [...]
Mastering the Hype Cycle
Finally someone is quantifying, or at least providing a qualifying model for what so many of us have known intuitively. Whether knowledge of these cycles can change these cycles is dubious, but if it can serve to hasten evolution to the “slope of enlightenment” or help money find less-hyped and more sustainable [...]
I worked with Michael when I was at Warner Bros. and he was at Time, Inc. That I recall, he was always innovative, and always in the context of practicable, tractable strategies.
He recently blogged about the state of the traditional media industry, in the context of cross-platform ad strategies. It’s a good POV [...]
