Why the Yahoo acquisition of Tumblr is great: Focus

May 22, 2013

I’ve talked about the need to focus before on this blog. In fact, its advice I gave the younger me in a post as I reflected on what I’ve learned over the years. The ability for leaders to focus is what allows them to accomplish great things vs. produce a lot of mediocre things. After reading this [...]

Kingdom Rush 2 is coming out…

May 21, 2013

Kingdom Rush remains the best iOS game I’ve ever played. And I still play it, well over a year after I first picked it up. It’s tower defense at its best. And now, there’s a new one coming out this Summer (the video says Spring but sources are saying Summer). And I can’t friggin’ wait.

More on why personal offices generally suck

May 21, 2013

Love this passage from the Max Barry book, Company. A great way of describing my feelings on personal offices and why I’ll never have one again. Like every other department in Zephyr, Training Sales has an open floor plan, which means everyone works in a sprawling cubicle farm except the manager, who has an office [...]

15 things you should give up to be happy #blindpost

May 20, 2013

This is a blindpost recommendation from @gumboshowjoe. You can see the original article if you want to compare (which I still haven’t). And I write a lot about being a happier, more positive person, but I don’t think I’ve ever written about the things you should give up in order to do so, which turned out [...]

So, marketing.

May 10, 2013

Someone commented recently on this blog suggesting that I talk more about marketing. And it made me realize that I really don’t write much about marketing here these days. I’ve always said this blog would reflect the things I’m interested in talking about at any given period of my life. Sometimes I’ll talk about technology. [...]

My earliest memory of being a leader

May 9, 2013

It was the second grade. I was the established class clown by then. And I was about to experience my first leadership moment. I was, in fact, the class clown all the way through school, and the thing I always found ironic was that from grade 1 to grade 8, I was constantly in trouble [...]

Are marketers not taking Twitter seriously enough?

May 6, 2013

@thewordpainter certainly thinks so. In this Adotas article, he says, “As much potential as there is with the Facebook and LinkedIn inboxes, it’s the power of the Twitter inbox that should get top billing.” And he makes some interesting points, many of which I personally have overlooked.
