For quite a time last year SecondLife was all the rave and all the dispute. Bleeding Marketers were talking it up about as much as they could, and Crayon, a new marketing firm, was even founded virtually in it (neat!). SecondLife even reared its head in a question for a ...

(Thanks, Tom Tiger for letting me use your photo!)
Funny thing about perception is it doesn't really let us see what is actually there. I mean, sure, right now I am looking at a laptop made by HP. I like it well enough. I'd rather be staring at a Macbook ...

I don't think I'm letting anyone in on anything new when I say having the flu sucks. I can say, happily might I add, that the flu sucks a lot less when you have a sweet girlfriend who helps take care of you through it (I know, she spoils me ...

E-mail has a spam filter. If that doesn't work, our failsafe is a personal filter system that allows us to create filters, making sure (we wish) any spam that does get past the spam filter gets automatically thrown in the trash (deleted).

I wanted to eat some baby carrots (they're so tasty and bite sized!). I grab a new bag from the fridge and bust them open on the way back to my room. Reaching into the bag I grab hold of my first delectable... baby carrot?

Blegh. I've got a cold tonight and it's messing up my thought processing jive.
Really I am supposed to be doing a case study for my managing emerging ventures class, but I decided to use blogging as a procrastination outlet instead. I don't feel quite so guilty since the main issue ...

Okay, so when I haven't been developing the niche user generated content site, I've been thinking almost obsessively about life streaming and micro-blogging. Really, ReadWriteWeb's interview with David Karp on version 3 of Tumblr is what brought me back around to think about it more.

I hope everyone had a happy Halloween yesterday! I just woke up after spending a long night being dressed as a pirate (pictures to come). It was quite enjoyable. Many didn't recognize me, which lead to a lot of staring and attention. Sure, it was like buying attention, but who ...
