So true it’s scary
If Architects Had To Work Like Web Designers…
Dear Mr. Architect:
Please design and build me a house. I am not quite sure of what I need, so you should use your discretion. My house should have somewhere between two and forty-five bedrooms. Just make sure the plans are such that the bedrooms can be easily added [...]
The World of Color
I recently came across this site that is a terrific look at the world of color. Sounds dull, but it’s really quite fun. Check it out.
Great Service
This morning, I pulled out my Bose noise canceling headphones, one of my most cherished possessions. When I turned the ear cup to put them on, the headband cracked. I use these headphones on every plane I go on nowdays and since I have another trip to Europe next week, I was horrified.
I called [...]
Working with Communities
At the Blog Business Summit (that thing I so desperately wanted to be at) there seems to have been an interesting discussion about PR and the blogosphere.
Worth a read, but here’s a few of the points I wanted to highlight:

Jealousy. Thy name is Jake.

Amazon’s Customer Images
I just noticed a new (?) feature on Amazon: Customer Images. Looks like Amazon is tapping into their customer base, their…..community… to help them fill out their product image gallery. A great example of not having to pay people to do work WITH you. As a wise man (and former boss) used to say often [...]
