Spend to success
So I’ve been VERY behind in doing anything post-y in way, way too long. However, I’ve been reading a LOT recently on the impending doom in the startup/tech world (Web 2.0 is DEAD! Did you know that?!) and it’s starting to kind of piss me off. I have a very simple view about startups:
You have to spend to succeed. Survival is NOT Success.
What’s that mean? Well, if you...

Streamlining
So, as I promised earlier this week on Twitter, I’m working on reinventing this l’il site. No more in-line Twitter feed (which made it almost useless), and I’m trying to get a new design out this weekend.
I’ve decided to go all-in on Tumblr. Why? Having a “real blog” was intimidating. I felt the need to write an epic post every time, which lead me to post less...

Great day!
So I’ve found that, typically, while on the road, days that I have that start at 7AM and end at… 11:53PM, are usually pretty good. This day is no different. Going 100 MPH, pausing briefly, and then zooming off again, is always a fun experience. Having positive feedback, moving towards positive goals, and feeling productive (or at least progressive) all makes for really quick, fun and...

Violent video games were around long before Grand Theft Auto and Dead Rising showed kids the fun of drunk driving and hitting golf balls into a crowded food court.
The Olympics start this week? Really?
I might just be a jaded bastard, but am I the only one that simply doesn’t give a crap about the fact that the BIGGEST event (nevermind that it’s sport) in the world.
It might be the fact that I’m Canadian and there’s a distinct lack of snow/ice in the summer games, but I’m just very “meh” about this year’s games.
2010 is in my hometown, and I...
Reputation and where it's going
So I’ve been putting a lot of spare cycles into a space that I feel is coming up to a place that means something; Reputation Management. To date, startups and big companies alike have PR folks, community managers and customer service. These all serve a specific purpose. PR people push the message the company wants out. Community managers deal with the properties and tools that the company...

Laptop won’t boot. Again. Faaaaaaaantastic.
Great lunch with @djayc and @prob1em — back to the grindstone.
I don’t think I do enough shameless self-promotion. I’m going to have to work on that :|
Looks like twitter search only goes back so far? Hm. Trying to get more neatness into Twiddeo before relaunch.
Ugh. Put the summize guys in charge. It’s bad when search is faster than basic functionality.
I’ve seen very little in my little Twitter circle about The Dark Knight. Anyone NOT like it?
TDK!!!!
Holy. Fucking. Shit. That movie was AMAZING.
AB weekends suck
Ok going to bed. It’s been a long, LONG day. I’d rather it had been a long, GOOD day, but c’est la vie. Tomorrow’s coming no matter.
