Podcamp DC, Here I Come!
So after being told that some of the people that I know are going to Podcamp DC this Saturday, I decided to see if I could register. At one point, I noticed that registration was now closed and you’d have to be bumped to the waitlist. Well, forget that! Then just yesterday I tried to […]
Have I told you that I admire Seth Godin?
In an earlier post, I had talked about “dropping names” and I’ve been astonished by the folks that I’ve encountered online – people like Robert Scoble, Geoff Livingston, Shel Israel, Jim Long, Loic Le Meur, and even Dave Winer. Not to go on a tangent or anything, but I happened to come across Robert Scoble […]
Twitter, Facebook, or Blogging: Which is a better extension of your brand?
Now before you say anything, I’m sure that all three of the above mentioned applications are probably best used in collaboration with each other to help accentuate your brand online. BUT, what I’m asking is which of the three: Twitter, Facebook, or setting up your own blog, would help create more “buzz” for your brand? […]
Get your tech foot in the door with Job Matchbox
So I was quite fortunate enough to hang out with Mr. and Mrs. Robert Neel of Job Matchbox tonight and we shot the breeze about what was going on with their site since they recently redesigned their site and a bunch of other things. As it turns out, it’s probably been a couple of months […]
Abusing bloggers
I read a post on The Social Times written by Anthony LaFauce about how bloggers are being given a double standard and the ongoing debate about its legitimization. This brought back an interesting conversation that I had with my friend Juliana about how credible bloggers are. So let’s examine this for a second… In the […]
Putting it all into context
Albeit not totally a historical day, the World Wide Web has put forth two pretty significant announcements this morning. First was the news coming from Virginia-based company, AOL, and the story that they purchased Bebo for $850 million. That’s awfully nice of them and I think it’ll give AOL a good step into breaking into […]
Free web analytics: might as well use them
Jeremiah Owyang had this great twitter posting earlier today about how most of the folks that come to his site earned around $100k or more. How did his quantify that amount? I doubt he went to the owners of each individual IP address that visited his site and did a survey of their personalities to […]
Reading about SXSWi is almost like being there
I’ve heard of South by Southwest many years ago, but haven’t had the luxury of attending…but from what I’ve been reading on various blogs like Technosailor, The Social Times, and Valleywag and also on Twitter, it’s quite amusing to learn what’s happened in Austin over the last 24-48 hours. From Scoble’s Qik tour of the […]
News is no longer a one-way communication. Start to get social.
As a consequence of attending Wednesday’s soiree at Ogilvy’s office in downtown DC for MashMeet DC Remix, I ran into Kimberly from Searchles who’s company apparently did a demo of their product for the folks in attendance (I didn’t watch all the PowerPoint presentations sadly). She was there to film the presentations for posting on […]
Because dropping names just isn’t fun without actually meeting them…
I’m quite ecstatic about things that are going on with my online presence, I must admit. It’s the small things that make it all worth it. In just the last 24 hours, I’ve been noticed by some of the best minds in the Washington, DC tech community and ultimately it’s because I did a handshake. […]
