I’ve decided to take a step back from blogging for awhile. I tried to do this several months ago but I got sucked back in. Phil is right - I’ve been too critical on my blog lately. I think that’s mainly because there is a direct correlation between controversial posts and traffic. I’ve seen my traffic […]
Well it looks like Mike Arrington is now on Twitter too. Big surprise!
Here’s my real problem with Twitter - its a tool that contributes to the breakdown of real forms of communication - like talking and meeting face to face. Twitter offers no real value add to my life or yours.
Bottom line is that Twitter […]
OK, so maybe I’ve blogged a little too much about PayPerPost lately but I couldn’t let this go. Ted Murphy, CEO of PayPerPost will be on Jason Calacanis’ vidcast today. Holy cow! Here’s how Ted is describing the upcoming encounter:
“This is pretty much like walking into a pack of wolves or swimming with sharks with freakin’ […]
I ran into my favorite company, PayPerPost, at OMMA. I stopped by their booth and harassed them for awhile. I could tell that they get a lot of guys like me and really didn’t want to debate. Here are a couple of things they told me:
PPP now requires disclosure on all posts but they are very lenient on […]
Google just announced the beta launch of their new pay-per-action (affiliate) network. Mike Arrington over at TechCrunch said it best:
“Affiliate marketing networks like Commission Junction and LinkShare are screwed.”
Agreed!
I’m here at the OMMA conference in L.A. and I’m having a good time. I just got done making the rounds in the exhibit hall. I’m shocked at the number of SEM/SEO companies that are exhibiting here. I had similar reaction when I attended the Utah Valley Big Business Expo a couple of weeks back. I could […]
It looks like I’ve been challenged to lose some weight. Phil Burns has created a “Web 2.0 Geek” weight loss competition on Chad Blodgett’s Weight Loss Wars site. OK, I’m in. I really need to burn off some of this winter fat and get ready for summer.
Congratulation to Chad for getting up this service. I […]
PayPerPost. Wow. These guys never fail to give me something great to blog about. It looks like their development team and CEO need a lesson on how to build software.
If you’re a programmer you need to watch this. If you are anyone else you need to watch this for an excellent example of really bad […]

I just picked up Founders at Work by Jessica Livingston. Great book!
Founders at Work is a compilation of stories from the founders of a lot of well know Internet companies like Hotmail, Yahoo and Flickr. Although I’m in the early stages of a start up right now, this book is bringing back a lot of […]
