I’ve come across a new–new to me anyway–phenomenon–the new time of caring. Weird title I know. And surely the phenomenon isn’t new–but it just started to happen to me over and over again and finally it started to become an interesting reality.
So what is the new time of caring?
It’s when you tell someone they [...]

There is something that can be learned from Apple by every company. The Apple iPad conference was a spectacle. People sitting around offices watching live blogs as if it were a sporting event. Can you name any other product that has created such a buzz since.. well the iPhone?

Marketing is often about making you believe you need something that you don’t. When I watch “Man Vs. Wild” all I can think about is how I need something great instead of getting something that sucks because its advertised as great.

I was watching this interesting documentary on bottled water and couldn’t help but think that the bottle water company did the unthinkable: they sold ice to Eskimos. Just think about it for a moment. We buy water, something that is available to everyone. Why do we buy? For convenience? Because we don’t have cups laying [...]

Everywhere there are social media gurus. SEO gurus. There are all sorts of web gurus who tout their skills but don’t seem to say anything new.

After having nothing but problems with Wordpress Plugins that run Google Adsense I decided to just do it myself.
Its not hard. Go to your single.php either via FTP or in your editor and find this line of code: <?php the_content(‘ ‘); ?>
Right before that code put this:
<div id=”google-ad”>
<script type=”text/javascript”><!–
google_ad_client = “pub-your code here”;
google_ad_slot = “adslot [...]

Sure, there are some pretty good websites out there that help find a job. But do they really do the job? Sites like HotJobs and Monster almost always seem filled with spam about working from home. The Ladders does little more than aggregate stuff from a bunch of other sites–at least its tidy. Indeed does [...]
