Monday, October 25 Paul Colligan

I tweeted last week that “Acer Chairman says iPad impact not serious … then offers Easter Bunny job as Chief Strategy Director.” Apologies to the Easter Bunny in suggesting he’d take such a demotion but, … let’s face it, with the iPad, the Netbook is dead in 2010. Today I sit in front of my…Read More »

My final BlogWorld 2010 thoughts (before the event, at least) have been posted at the BlogWorld Blog. Read ‘em and make a comment or two. I hope to see you at the YouTube Superpanel – or in the halls somewhere in Vegas. I get on the plane tomorrow morning – time to pack …

It is time once again. I’m Vegas bound next week for BlogWorld & New Media Expo 2010 and wanted to highlight a few places I’ll be and make a few recommendations. Where I’ll be. BlogWorld runs an online scheduling entity that I’ve played with. It’s not bad and you can see the scheduled events I’m…Read More »

Some YouTube fun for you: 1 – I’ve put together a Panel for BlogWorld and New Media Expo on YouTube. The working title is “YouTube: Personality, Process and Profits.” I honestly picked my top three choices for the panel and asked them first and, dear friends, they all said yes.

Monday, August 2 Paul Colligan

Running the numbers is always fun. So, how did the Social Profit Formula YouTube experiment go? How does more than $16,000.00 in sales for every thousand views sound to you? That would be a $16488 CPM – if that’s the language you want to use. You could also look at it as more than $766…Read More »
