The Global Paradox And Main Street Marketing Machines
One of the most important books for my business and professional career was/is The Global Paradox. Although written when the Internet was becoming a reality, very very little of it had to do with that specific tech. The book was all about the logical implications of where things are going. And, it was as obvious…Read More »
Verizon iPhone Details
Like most good geeks this morning, I read the liveblogs regarding the Verizon announcements. At the top of the list was Engadget’s live reporting (they always do a killer job) and Techcrunch as they, like me are always interested in the business side of it all. Of course, if that’s the focus, I guess we…Read More »
iOS4 (iPhone OS 4) Thoughts
I have to admit the following – I spent the morning putting off the errands I needed to run because I knew the IOS update was coming. Yes, I’m that kinda geek.

Branding is a tough thing, but if anyone can pull it…Read More »
My 2010 New Media Predictions
Beware a prognosticator who isn’t honest about past prognostication. How did I do with my 2009 predictions? I’m calling 4 out of 5. 2009 Prediction #1 – Now that iPod finally has a competitor in the Zune, you’ll see advances this year in new media aggregation that can only come from stiff competition. Was wrong…Read More »
New iPods Coming?
AppleInsider tells us that a new iPod lineup is coming very soon – 9/9/9 to be exact. Rumors they’re also “confirming” include some “social networking” features being built inside of iTunes 9. Weren’t we “laughing” at Microsoft’s attempt to make the Zune social a few years back? It all makes sense though – the camera…Read More »
