Listening with Social Media: Social Media Archaeologists

Sat, 10 May 2008 13:06:10 PDT
As part of Spring cleaning, I stumbled upon a report from a 6th grade report that I wrote about Primitive Man and His Cave Drawings. The last page was about archaeologists - people who dig up the past with tools like sieves and shovels. How can we become digital archaeologists who use social media to dig up real time information to understand the right now? What is listening? Let's take the definition from Josh Bernhoff from this YouTube video from the Forrester Consumer Forum. "Lear

Life In Rural New Jersey

Sat, 10 May 2008 13:22:18 PDT
They say a man’s home is his castle and I can’t disagree. My wife has been transforming the castle grounds into a thriving massive garden over the past 3 years and as a result, we’ve attracted a bevy of new friends. One of these new friends is the Scarlet Tanager. I’ve never seen this type of bird before and thought they were just lost in our area. After identifying this fine feathered friend, I found out that NJ is part of their range and they tend to winter in Southern parts of the country

Better Mobile Data Needed To Secure More Mobile Ad Dollars

Sat, 10 May 2008 14:14:37 PDT
Marketing via cellphones is forecast to be one of the next hot trends, but many advertisers are still hesitant to empty their pockets on mobile-ad campaigns. One reason: There isn't yet a reliable source of data that show what Web sites and features consumers are accessing on their mobile devices. Measurement firms such as Nielsen and M:Metrics, which have relied mainly on monthly consumer surveys to gather such information, are developing electronic tracking methods that aim to provide more sp

Search Engine and Spark: A Tale of Two CBC Technology Shows

Sat, 10 May 2008 14:31:33 PDT
Last September, CBC Radio launched two new technology shows: Search Engine and Spark. I forget how I first heard about them, but I subscribed to both podcasts from their first episode. Search Engine is a show about the cultural and politics of the web (they need a copyable blurb on their home page and in iTunes). The most recent episode featured stories on the hacker convention Defcon, gaming the CIA’s website and a rapping Hungarian YouTube star. Here’s the spiel on Spark: Spark is a weekly

An Open Source Proposal

Sat, 10 May 2008 14:37:31 PDT
In this post, I discuss, in outline form, the things we are considering as we develop an open source proposal. Our decision process is more complex than most other OS companies since we have put over two decades of work building an architecture and wide range of diverse applications that incorporate a patented disruptive technology. I welcome your feedback. In order to clarify our current mind-set, I've included a brief description of our existing source code modules, data library modules, and

Born To Run

Thu, 24 Apr 2008 19:52:27 PDT
My name is Caroline, and I'm a Dolly Parton addict. OK. But what does that have to do with emerging talent, you ask? My obsession with the busty one led to my discovery of the Constantines, a Toronto-based quintet who recently recorded an amazing cover of "Islands In The Stream" with Feist that's currently taking the music blogosphere by storm. So, you can only imagine my glee when I discovered that they were coming through New York to play in support of a new album, Kensington Heights (it drops

Presenting Girlicious. BOO

Presenting Girlicious. BOO Posted on April 24th, 2008 I’m really embarrassed to admit this but I’m one of the 100 people who watched that CW trash show The Pussycat Dolls Presents: Girlicious. Fortunately for me I was smart enough to stop watching in the second week. I’ve been hearing a lot about the final group this week and it’s so disappointing. They’re like a younger and trashier version of The Pussycat Dolls. I can’t believe women actually allow themselves to be exploited like this. I’

US Dollar and Commodities

Thu, 24 Apr 2008 19:56:44 PDT
One of the major intermarket relationships is that of the US Dollar Index and various Commodity Prices. Generally, the US Dollar trades strongly inverse commodity prices. Let’s look at it before discussing it further: Typically, a falling US Dollar index is inflationary, and inflation occurs with higher commodity prices (I am using the CRB Index in this example, though there are other indexes some traders prefer). Commodities refer to gold, crude oil, wheat, rice, silver and other pric

Crazy PE Multiples

Thu, 24 Apr 2008 20:01:46 PDT
Crazy PE Multiples Should some of these crazy Price-to-Earnings ratio multiples be a sign to someone out there that a stock “might” be overvalued? I mean take Chinese Internet Company Baidu.com. It has a PE ratio of… say it with me… 130! That’s crazy. The company’s market capitalization is somewhere around $8 billion. So what are you getting for that money? A measly $20.9 million in quarterly profits! No that wasn’t a type — not $209 million or $2.09 billion — but $20.9 million bucks! And tha

Shop for a Car Nationally What’s so great about EBay Motors? The deals! Have you ever checked out the site? There are great deals on both new and used cars alike. Looking for a limited release car (like the Ford Shelby Cobra) or a great used deal on a luxury ride? Well you can find it there! The only problem is getting the car to your house. It might end up being from a dealership 3000 miles away. So what to do? This is where National Auto Shipping comes in. With over 10 years experience, th
