Interview with Merrick Lozano of PRLeap.com

December 14, 2006

I know everybody says it but one of the most important parts of Pubcon is the networking. I met Mario and Merrick Lozano of PRLeap and had a great time “talking shop” one night. Merrick was nice enough to do an interview and answer a few questions about himself and his company.

Looking at Search Video News

October 3, 2006

I’ll admit I’m like the people Guy Kawasaki recently talked with I don’t spend a lot of time watching TV. I watch the occasional Mythbusters, American Chopper and animal planet nature documentary, and a few TV show I run some blogs for, so we’re talking about less than 5 hours a week. Since I spend [...]

September 8, 2006

March 14, 2006

In the past week Google played catch-up with MSN AdCenter by offering Adwords Targeting based on demographics ( see Google AdWords Help Center: What is demographic site selection? and Targeting as a Strategy). Maybe I spent a little to much time in AOL chat rooms in my youth (yo ASL roomies), but I don’t place [...]

Clickable TV

January 28, 2006

So I finally got around to reading Brian’s article on IPTV, which tied in with something I was reading on WebmasterWorld about Dora the Explorer teaching kids to “click” on TV. Now I’ve mentioned before that I think within a few years we’re going to see an internet based TV network. Which made me start [...]

Earlier this week Google launched Google Video, a service which allows you to download and play videos. Some big time players are participating in the distribution like CBS and the NBA.

I recieved an invite to preview Newsvine.com which is a new service that allows you to read, interact and write about news stories. I knew the service was similar to Topix.net but aside from seeing a few news stories here and there I really didn’t know that much about the service.

IPod Webmaster Free Content

December 29, 2005

Since the folks over at the Yahoo Buzz Report tell us that some IPod searches are up anywhere from 187% to 646% (Yahoo! Buzz Index – Buzz Log – Apple Swallows Holiday Buzz), they came to the conclusion that lots of folks got an IPod for Christmas/Chanukah/Kwanzaa/Festivus. I’ll bet that even includes some of [...]

Washington Posts Extends Free Archives

December 23, 2005

While the New York Times has a decidedly schizophrenic approach to online content (making the old stuff subscription based, but publishing a free real estate blog). The Washington Post is at least moving in the right direction (WashingtonPost.com Extends Free Content Window)

Blogosphere Failing to Scale

December 19, 2005

First it was Six Apart/ Typepad going down, now bloglines is shutting down for maintenance, and del.icio.us has been down most of today. It may be true that 99.99% uptime doesn’t scale, but when these things happen to multiple independent services makes you wonder if the blogosphere really is ready for John Q. Public.
