Why hasn't this happened?
What Is An Original Idea Worth?
Today, business people are finally using the internet to learn about other businesses and help grow their own. In this discovery, they are also finding that they aren’t unique. Someone in China is doing the same thing for a fraction the price. It’s the same thing Metallica saw with Napster. Pirates weren’t just stealing their music, they were discovering all the other Metallicas too. What a humbling experience this must have been.
The Anti A-Lister: Automatically Generated Memes
Basically, the territory has been claimed, all you noobs are too late, you didn’t miss the wave, but you being on it is only giving the wave more power, in turn you have no identity, even if you’re on twitter.
Not everyone is tuned into these channels of communication yet, but you can imagine what it will be like when they do. The more people tune into this, the more it will enhance the disparities. The people who are on twitter now are there for all the right reasons. They want to learn, expand their reach, and give back to the community, and maybe they will become popular in the process. The problem is that these A-Listers are also much more altruistic than the normal Joe.
What The Pros Don’t Want Amateurs Know: The Truth About Twitter
It is the same as a chatroom from a communication standpoint. There is one difference though, there is no room in the chatroom, it is decentralized conversation. Instead of communicating by visiting a confined space, you are just saying it into the open. Whoever is tuned into you, hears it. Which is why famous bloggers love it so much.

The more people who hear them, the more people link to them. In turn, many organic inbound links come in from those who have heard, optimizing the A-List Bloggers’ SEO.

For some reason, it’s easy for me to write about the negative aspects of business. I almost wrote an article discussing how Microsoft is a monopoly, upon which we are dependant. Obviously! Negative things stick out in the mind. They are easy to spot. Negatives stick out like red flashing lights. Screw them. It [...]
The Power of Belief and The Current State of Social Networking
Facebook is a failure waiting to happen, MySpace is a wasteland, and AIM is practically an artifact. O yeah! Did I mention Twitter is going the same direction? It is easy to play devils advocate, especially in retrospect. But Facebook is still a hot tamale in many peoples’ books. These internet [...]
Is Your Business GPS Ready?
A little more than a year ago, Dunkin’ Donuts made a deal with TomTom navigation to have their logo show up on the navigation systems instead of the normal fork and knife icon. Its a subtle start, and I’m sure its effective. Garmin also implemented GPS navigation marketing that gave 45,000 special offers to users [...]
Is Your Business Facebook Ready?
Interested in buying a portion of Facebook, Microsoft has valued it at $10 billion. Regardless of how accurate this valuation is, the enterprise is worth billions without argument. Founder, Mark Zuckerberg doesn’t seem interested in selling out, considering he’s already received offers in the billions, for complete ownership, and refused.
Facebook still has options [...]
