Why the World Needs Heroes and Where They Are

December 4, 2007 – 9:50 pm

…or maybe it should be why I need heroes…
I’m not talking about the television series, although I do heart it very much. But I was watching the finale and waxing to myself why I do love it so much and came up with a really good reason: Hope.
I mean, we aren’t living in times of [...]

Risk, Decisions and Consequences

December 1, 2007 – 4:21 pm

As a teenager, I continuously made really bad short term decisions that ended up hurting me in the long term. Often I would tell a lie, that would need to be compounded by an additional lie, which would end up being multiply compounded by a web of lies in order to get away with something [...]

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:

Dear World of Marketing…

November 8, 2007 – 9:31 pm

You probably don’t know who I am, but I am one of your customers (and a marketer as well, but that’s beside the point, I’m a customer first). I am writing you in regards to the fact that you are missing every opportunity possible to snag my business and, instead, seem to be working really [...]

Limbic Hi-Jacking and Other Fabulous Ways to Spread Mass Panic

October 30, 2007 – 7:46 pm

Rule #1 for Spreading Love: Don’t Diss the Competition

September 19, 2007 – 8:44 pm

Many companies have spent alot of advertising dollars to tell us what’s wrong with the competition. I spent the last US election, wondering what each candidate really had to offer since all I heard from them was what their rival did (or was going to do) wrong. I constantly hear from startups who talk about [...]

Spread Love

September 18, 2007 – 8:42 pm

In my recent presentation at e.day, my “5 sure-fire steps to transforming yourself from a spammer into a connector” (said with booming voice) were:
