Looking back – looking ahead

by admin on July 2, 2010

Looking back
I seldom look back on a week, preferring to always look ahead to the next week. Even rarer are the occasions when I would allow the occurrences to coalesce into a posting, but in the technology world, a lot has happened – one event was substantial in scale, others… smaller but portending the development [...]

Innovation + Marketing

by admin on June 3, 2010

I think constantly about these two business fundamentals. When all facets of a business – operational, financial, product development or innovation and marketing are distilled to the most valuable assets, in the end I believe the essence is found in Innovation and Marketing.

Aol. – do we care at this point

by admin on December 7, 2009

CKX-TV had been on the air since 1955, and was the [...]
