Pandemonium is a one of my favorite albums by The Time, but that’s not what I’m talking about here. I know the hardcore marketing content has been light this week, my CAPOW buddies know about my Web 2.0 initiative and that’s what’s been taking up all my time. Throw a...
What the hell is up ...
Why is it that it seems there’s 10x the social media stuff coming out of people from Canada? Is there something special in the beer there? I have an interesting relationship with Canada, every year we would drive through it on our annual family vacation from Massachusetts to visit my...
Podcasting – N...
I ran a test recently to get a feel for the acceptance of podcast versus video. Readers were given the option of a link to a video clip or a link to a podcast and they chose the video clip at a ratio of almost 10 to 1. Until the average user understands that a video clip is one item, whereas a...
SalesForce.com IdeaE...
For all Salesforce admins out there – have you checked out the IdeaExchange yet? It’s a cool combination of Digg, Wiki and Product Management tool. Users can rate what features or bugs the want to see developed in the next release of the product, and then Salesforce can brag about...
Microsoft Crayonvill...
You heard it here first. Last week I was trying to compile my results from my HTML vs. text email test and having some trouble with a SQL query (I have to use the Access tool, I only write SQL code as comic relief for the true developers I work with). While trolling the Microsoft help center I...

I wanted to throw this out to the crowd to see if anyone is seeing similar stats – both on my work and personal sites I see MS Explorer falling below 50% of all traffic. Very close to 50 on my B2B site, but occasionally low 40′s on my blog/podcast stuff. Firefox continues to gain...

If you need something to listen to, check out the weekly M Show there’s business news, talk and entertainment, all under 10 minutes. The latest was just posted! The Dork Alert – On the cast I have made fun of people with lightsabres, so I was given my due and caught red handed with...
Crazy Friday
It’s been quite the week. Why is it that the 4 day ones always seem worse? Lots of cool stuff going on with a new project with David Scott. I’ve also entered The Webbys again just for kicks, so I had to spend tonight tightening down the last of the new fixtures over on...
Year of Living Digit...
Paul Colligan has a blog called Year of Living Digitally and I’m calling it a Brain Buster. I stretched my mind last weekend downloading an HD movie to my Xbox 360 and Paul emailed that he’s using an XBox at the heart of his home media center. But get this: he’s making his...
HTML vs. Text
Today I finally got around to examining test results of my HTML vs. Text email experiment. For anyone that missed the earlier post – there are two basic “flavors” of email – HTML, the same language that web pages are made up from (which displays pictures and includes...
