Christopher Penn had some advice today about being an asshole which has been contrary to his superpowers thread. The previous posts talked about how we all have amazing powers now that we can access the web. The A-Hole post talks about some of the powers of the dark side.
All that’s left is to put these […]

Wrapped up a good weekend today, so let’s get you starting the week off right with a new M Show.
I got to tour the Samuel Adams Brewery this weekend and meet Matthew Ebel in person (seen below with Kroosh). We then drove away…

Some may recall my whining about a month back about all the work it took to get Salesforce.com and Google Adwords integration up and running. The endgame was that there were some problems on my side with a PERL script we use, but it went farther than that - I was editing the script correctly […]

I’m finally feeling like I’m back in the game. I still have this annoying itch in my throat but that could just as well be allergies as cold. This is one of the joys of New England. Another - on Tuesday, even though there was still snow in the parking lot I saw my first […]

What a drag it has been this last week. I’m still feeling run down but I’ve been getting better every day. I caught 4 innings of the Sox game over at Fenway last night with the lovely Carin thanks to a ticket hookup from E-413.

Sorry guys but I am still coughing up a lung. I am going to bed now, and although there’s no new sparkling prose you can check out the latest edition of Marketing Over Coffee - The Best Marketing Podcast for 16 minutes of talk about MySpace Bots, Black Hat Marketing and the influence of Web […]

There’s been some chatter today and yesterday about live blogging at conferences. I jumped on with this post from Allan Jenkins.
