Hello everyone, my name is John Wall and this is where I write about Marketing, Technology and whatever else I find interesting (your mileage may vary). Please check out Marketing Over Coffee, a podcast I do with Christopher Penn. I also have a weekly podcast called The M Show which is great for your commute to work (or even if you don't commute). BTW, I don't look this good, I have a great photographer. I can be reached at: john at themshow dot com

Check LinkedIn for my professional background.

Death Star Canteen

I saw Eddie Izzard on The Graham Norton show and I couldn’t stop laughing about this for the next hour.  Aside from a few f-bombs it’s safe for work.

Second Life Stats – Who Cares?

I’ve had this draft in my “stuff to complete” forever. As I was reviewing my drafts I saw this and started to laugh – have you been to Second Life recently? I sure haven’t. Here were the facts that I had picked up, which are probably horribly out of date – hey, what more do [...]

Why I Didn’t Spend $1,300 at Best Buy on Black Friday

As the IT Director of my family we’ve been updating the hardware infrastructure. Over the past couple of years everyone is migrating to Mac. I no longer loose Thanksgiving or Christmas time doing Virus Protection upgrades, and my family members now have a 50/50 or better chance of getting the pictures off their digital cameras [...]

EHMO Returning

I am a big fan of this show that at least does something. When you think about it, every other show exists only to sell ads.
So I had a widget for Extreme Home Makeover here, but it broke the formatting for the page so it’s gone.

Theives and Liars Think We Are Stupid

By Theives and Liars I mean the jackasses that should be treating us as customers rather than known felons. Regular readers are familiar with my extreme hatred of companies who add so many security “features” that it makes it impossible to do business with them. I was ordering a credit report a few weeks ago [...]

A Robot Renegade Cop

It’s Friday, and my chance to score -10 to your productivity with some Vids. Scott Monty tipped me off to both of these as a fan of voice-over artists.

Five Guys in a Limo
Have a good weekend!

What I Did on My Spring Vacation – BS (08)

For those following the travel saga, we ended up taking the LimoLiner, a 28 passenger deluxe bus that worked very well, although we felt the pain of a fellow traveler across from us who was sitting next to the guy who really wanted to talk politics and spilled his coffee all over both of them. [...]

Monday Morning Blues

Back to work after a busy weekend in Gotham City. I had a great time a blogger social, and have to do a full write up, but catching up on sleep was a higher priority this morning.
You know it’s solid when the Ogilvy pipe comes out. I just requested permission on this copyrighted shot from [...]

NCAA Basketball March Madness

If you have already set up your picks for the NCAA Tournament please consider entering the charity tournament I’m playing in. The entry fee is $25 and the winner gets to select the charity that will receive the pot.
You can enter here, and it’s pretty low key so you can probably still enter after the [...]

Stupidity

I rented a minivan for the trade show. Lame, I know, but it’s good for hauling around the trade show cases, or  carpooling with everybody else.  These keys are huge b/c they have 6 buttons on them, but here’s the kicker: they gave me two keys on a keychain that is a cable keyring that [...]
