Making Money Digitally

I fell in love with the internet for the same reasons I love college basketball, literature, travel and New York City. They are all vast, endless worlds in which you can seemingly discover something new every single time you visit. It’s almost impossible to get bored. A new website/book/city/bar or ESPN Big Monday night match-up [...]

You Know What Bugs Me Out…Facebook!

I was about to write this whole long cutesy post about how Facebook really freaks me out. But I’d rather get right to the point (plus if I wrote another post in yiddish my keppie would explode). I find myself using and enjoying Facebook much less. I consider myself a serious digital sharer, but I’m [...]

Pennant Race Drive: The World’s First Fantasy Sports Twitter Game

  A few months ago I thunk out a blog post that I titled “Fantwitsy Sports” . I wrote about the appeal of a twitter based fantasy sports game from both a product and a business standpoint. Besides the blog being sent out to the regulars (mia, klien, cuz Stacey, Evanter, etc), I also emailed [...]

Fantwitsy Sports

I’ve been aimlessly chirping away on Twitter for awhile now. Make no mistake, my random tweets are extraordinarily unexceptional as I ponder man vs. mosquito or the physical beauty of brothers Van Gundy.

Wager The World

A few months ago I jotted down some notes on some of my start-up fundamentals for a new web venture. It included the concepts of digital crack, core strengths, social media, SEO, cult community, A&O and revenue steams. If you’re wondering what any of these things mean it’s probably easiest to go back to the [...]

What’s The Deal With Twitter?

That is a question that everybody seems to be asking me these days. I’m sure that most of you have heard about Twitter by now. The “micro-blogging” platform is expanding at a torrid pace and now has over five million worldwide users. Although Twitter has been hot for a few years with the digital early [...]

My Web Start-Up Fundamentals

I’ve been thinking about starting a new website or digital business with some of my free time. This is something I’m always thinking about. Recently, the itch has been compounded as a few of my friends, and people in my network, have shared some of their digital ideas with me. Like in many industries these [...]

Awesome Website Bro: MP3Panda.com

My moral compass is going all haywire as if I was Locke on The Island (nerdy LOST reference) but this site is way too good not to tell you about it.

Awesome Website Bro: Kiva.org

I’ve been telling anybody that will listen that Digital, Energy/Climate, and Global business are the three biggest growth opportunities in the world right now and for our generation. No matter how bad this recession gets, or how long it drags out, at some point we will come out of it. When we do, the innovation, [...]
