Apparently Chris got word to his sister Kathy that she has some admirers. Just in case you missed my earlier links, make sure to swing by Inane Comments. It’s a wonderful log of life with three kids. Someone should hire Kathy to write this stuff…

Well, so much for talking about Google hacks. They just downgraded my weblog’s PageRank.  Personally, I think the two are related (FWIW, I thought it would be a good thing to make it easy to allow people to get RSS feeds off of Google News pages and add Google search to their site.  I guess not). …

On the plane this morning got caught up on some magazine reading. I absolutely love MIT’s Technology Review – in its latest incarnation, it focuses on all things relating to innovation. The result is a magazine that is full of useful and intriguing information. This month’s cover story is on data extinction (available to subscribers…

Marketing Magazine.  Jim Carroll. Corporate weblogs. It likely won’t be too long before we see an official Harley-Davidson blog that features ongoing commentary, news and updates from an “evangelist” within the Harley organization.

Ernie sent me an e-mail expressing shock that I’m just now figuring out scanning. Come on – cut me some slack! Scanning just always seemed so, well, boring. But I’ve got religion now… And as long as we’re making technology discoveries here in the Klau house, we went ahead and fooled around with 802.11b. Yup,…

Tom Peters and Branding. I got to go be in the live audience yesterday of a Tom Peters webinar where for an hour he railed, riffed on great quotes, told stories, and test-i- fied. Hell of a performance. While the rest of us are nattering among ourselves, Tom is out making converts among the heathen.…

Don’t Forget the Brownies. Denise’s “Interview Tips“ almost make me reconsider my pledge to never interview for a job as a lawyer. Seriously – after reading this, doesn’t it make you at least think about going to work for Crosby Heafey? Employers gain a lot when their employees are allowed to have a personality –…

If you’re in the tech business (whether you sell into it, work in it, or represent it) and you haven’t read Crossing the Chasm, stop reading right now and buy a copy. It’s one of the books that really defines the space – so much so that Geoffrey Moore (the author) created a consulting group…

Seriously – after reading this, doesn’t it make you at least think about going to work for Crosby Heafey? Employers gain a lot when their employees are allowed to have a personality – kudos to both CHR&M…
