My Seriously Serendipitous Life

November 29, 2007 – 5:34 pm

So, we’ve talked alot about Accelerating Serendipity and how many of the things we do or participate in (twitter, dopplr, flickr, coworking, barcamp, etc) is all about creating more opportunities for everyday magic to happen (that stuff you couldn’t have planned in a zillion years, but is exactly what needs to happen to get to [...]

A Company is the Sum of its People

November 27, 2007 – 2:38 pm

Thanks so much to my friend, Jay Fichialos, now on Ma.gnolia and sending me awesome links like this one that say things like:
…the one thing I have been able to extract as the core and essential principle is the fact that people are the singlemost important elements in a company. When you think about it, [...]

You may be a community freeloader if you…

November 24, 2007 – 12:56 am

q: What do you call someone who joins communities, adds friends and generally uses social networking tools to promote their own interests solely?
a: a community freeloader
Now, promoting your interests within a community isn’t a bad thing, per se. Having strong networks of people is a great advantage to furthering your causes, getting advice, meeting the [...]

The Brown Act of 1953: how this positive policy now negatively affects civic collaboration

October 17, 2007 – 3:02 pm

We were offering up some suggestion on how to get more collaborative with citizens to a municipal government official the other day, but it seems that everything we offered up would not be allowed under the Brown Act of 1953. Stuff like using open to the public Google Groups to correspond between project stakeholders (allowing [...]

Some new projects I’m working on…

October 15, 2007 – 5:59 pm

At some point I’m going to have to stop and remind myself that I can’t be involved in everything I’m passionate about…but for now, we have a couple of new projects and events that I’d like to announce.
Media Web Meetups
We started working with Songbird, the open source media browser, just about a month and a [...]

Metrics for Healthy Communities

October 3, 2007 – 9:42 pm

I’ve talked about this topic in a couple of places, but I don’t think I’ve actually posted what we ended up kind of coming up with as pretty decent measurements of the health of a community. But, perhaps I should first define what I mean by community health:
The health of a community is the gauge [...]

Chapters Indigo Goes Social

September 25, 2007 – 10:19 am

Probably about 6 months before I was hired by Riya.com, I was interviewed by a VP of Interactive at Chapters Indigo in Toronto.
I think that interview was a couple years ahead of it’s time. I remember really struggling to explain why Chapters Indigo needed the idea of online community and community tools. Saying, “When people [...]

Geek Marketing

September 6, 2007 – 10:39 pm

Geek Marketing, I’m actually truly glad that Steve Rubel named it this. It’s simple and explanatory of how a new ethic is emerging in marketing. This format is more realistic and relationship driven. Realistic because it doesn’t try to fool itself into thinking that any measurement formerly known as ROI means anything. Click-throughs and traffic [...]
