A Thought On Content Development

October 2, 2011   Permalink   Rick Clark

"Content is king!" You hear that mantra everywhere you go. King of what? I understand the "nothing is more important" part of that, but the expression doesn't offer a clue about how one's content becomes a king.

The Grass Is Greener On Both Sides.

September 27, 2011   Permalink   Heather Sundell | The Search Agents

Alright, perhaps I jumped the gun. Maybe I let a little vintage cynicism creep in prematurely. It can happen. So in my routine browsing of my favorite sites/blogs I ran across this at The Search Agents and it made me stop and think.

Has Facebook Jumped The Shark?

September 23, 2011   Permalink   Rick Clark

Not particularly happy about Facebook's new Timeline concept and the obligatory, unchangeable public nature of it, nor the "requirement" that I become a developer to participate when I don't even want to participate.

Thank You Howard Schultz!

September 2, 2011   Permalink   Howard Schultz | Starbucks Coffee Company

I have more to thank Howard Schultz for than my daily Americano and a place to meet my buddies every morning. No, I'm not talking about his biography. Didn't buy it. Not my cup o'tea.

I love Lauryn Ballesteros. I've never met her in person, but I love her nonetheless.

Lauryn is VP of Sales at Seth Godin's Squidoo, an avid traveler, speaks 3 languages and generally writes about business, marketing and sales. Today Lauryn wrote about life… or a little slice of it. And I believe that what Lauryn says will resonate with anyone who shares her enthusiasm for life.
