Wrap of the Inbound Marketing Summit #ims09

May 1st, 2009

I returned last night from the Inbound Marketing Summit in San Francisco. It was cool to have a co-locate with The NewComm Forum (#sncr), which made it really easy to connect with some of those folks who wouldn’t have attended IMS. I especially enjoyed my all-women dinner with KD Payne, Jen McClure, Susanne Rockwell and [...]

I am currently at the eMarketing Conference (#eMSF if you’re on Twitter) at the Hilton Financial District in San Francisco. Here are a few tidbits:
Roger Neal from BusinessWeek.com talked about the slow transformation of BusinessWeek, and how they are moving towards digital. There’s a lot of skepticism around the future of print and traditional publications [...]

A call for smaller airlines

April 13th, 2009

Every now and again, I feel an intense need to rant on the air travel system. As someone who has had jobs off-and-on that require a decent amount of travel, and with the nearest family living close to 4 hours away by air, I’ve had alot of need to travel over the years, both for [...]

Are Blogs Losing Their Authority To The Statusphere?

March 10th, 2009

Today on TechCrunch, Brian Solis wrote a very thoughtful article about online authority. With the explosive growth of the social nets, blog authority is declining, even for stalwarts like TechCrunch and Engadget, because less time is being spent blogging about other blog posts (and linking to them from another blog, such as I am doing [...]

The Skittle-butt

March 5th, 2009

I wasn’t too excited about Skittles site change to a Twitter feed, but I think perhaps its getting a little interesting now that they are moving around the social web. I was reading Gord Hotchkiss’ take on it, and I have to say I think he nails the rules that brands ought to consider when [...]

Wasting Adwords dollars for clickthroughs

March 3rd, 2009

Image via Wikipedia

Today I’ve been looking around for a free online translation tool that translates English to Hebrew - harder
than I thought it would be to find something that doesn’t literally give me words written in Hebrew letters (I was actually looking for transliterations, but…). During this futile search, I came across an Adwords ad [...]

Weirdness for the non-Internet famous

February 25th, 2009

I am no Dooce, nor even a Chris Brogan, so I am not exactly Internet famous. However, even for those of us who are not part of the digerati (digirati?), the social media realms can have some weird after effects in the real world. Last night I went to Startup Drinks here in Boulder, one [...]

Keyword density and search

February 16th, 2009

After having a conversation this morning with one of Kutenda’s super-geeks about all the various and sundry things that effect search rankings on a search page, I realize how relatively unhelpful it is to the average person managing a website to offer stats about keyword density. Typically, these stats show the following:
