I’m a dedicated Apple enthusiast and an iPhone user. With that said, I have to give credit to Nokia for producing what looks like a very compelling smart phone.
Knowing that the N9 is running the allegedly last version of MeeGo before jumping ship to WinMo, this new device is really pretty. Nokia have always [...]
Geo-tagging is nothing new to the evolving web, but Fwix is taking it to new places with it’s “hyperlocal places database” stack.
Through a new API they have created and one line of JS, companies/business can geo-tag their pages. The end result is rather compelling from both an end-user perspective and from a social perspective.

What does “innovation” mean?
I’ve considered this question many times over the course of my career.
Where I sit presently in my role and the business I work for delivers me at the intersection where I contemplate innovation often. Most specifically, I ruminate over how a company innovates within a service industry. Where the [...]
Was having an interesting conversation with a colleague at work regarding entertainment distribution platforms (music, film, tv) and the growing trend of services providing premium offerings based on choice.
Today came word of HBOgo reaching 1 million downloads in less than a week of availability (
Up until 2-3 years ago, my TV consumption was typically relegated to most Man things. Sports, more sports, movies, the occasional series addiction (X-Files, LOST), maybe the odd show on public broadcasting (Nova, Austin City Limits). But sometime, somehow in the last 2-3 years my tastes have changed almost ENTIRELY. Where I used to relax [...]
This week, Warner Music Group announced that it lost $18 MILLION (that’s meeeeeelion) dollars over the last 3 months of 2010. Additionally, information was disclosed that the loss comes from the company’s declining stock value, which allegedly fell by 12 cents in the period. To further bottom out the news, WMG’s revenue decreased [...]
Each of us has the privilege of experiencing many things. Great feats of wonderment, sad episodes of….well, just things we don’t enjoy too much. And then for us musically inclined folks and or just plain old fans of good music, we get to witness things that just take our breath away. Even more tragic is [...]
I came across this rather fascinating video featuring a new in-store display mechanism for Adidas stores. Though the experiential component of this display tool looks a lot like technology that has appeared in films over the last few years (Minority Report, Moon, Tron, etc), I think the more fascinating aspect of this display is how [...]
For a large chunk of 2007 and almost all of 2008, I spent a lot of time in San Francisco. I worked for a fascinating start up company based in the Mission District and because of my role (Sr. Product Manager) I needed to be in SF quite often. At least to start. At [...]
In my line of work, I often travel the intersection of brand and product. That intersection being what the company (or client if work related) makes and how they decide to sell it. In today’s world, that process is incredibly cluttered by the multitude of vehicles a brand can employ to get our attention. TV, [...]
