I wrote an article on Getting Stuff Done and I received requests to go into more detail. Responding to those requests I wrote a second article on 3by9 called Getting Things Done: Lacking Discipline? In the first article I talked about organization. In the second article I talked about dealing with things one might not [...]
My older brother and I were very close. I used to ask him if he wanted his own business. He said no and I thought he was nuts until he explained why. He told me he needed to be accountable for his time. He needed to punch a clock because he lacked discipline. This [...]
People are finally waking up about Facebook. Sorry, too little, too late.
Why these people didn’t see this coming ages ago blows my mind. Seriously, I’m trying to wrap my brain around it. Once the ease, coolness, etc. is stripped away from Facebook and one takes a serious look at Facebook, it’s easy to see. There [...]
In business one of the hardest things about business planning is finding the right strategy. Which approach is the best or optimal way to accomplish the goal?

Must be nice, sitting on a throne throwing stones at everyone. I’m talking about Uncov. It’s been noted they have a start-up they are not tagging as Web 2.0 called Persai (gotta start distancing yourself from the Web 2.0 term, remember?). What is Persai? Who knows? At first I thought it was a killer [...]
For two days my Feedster feeds have been pulling errors. I’ve been trying to access the site…nada. I did a search on Technorati, there were no results. Nothing relevant from Google either. Perhaps it’s due to technical issues but two days is a long time to be down on the internet.
And no one say anything.

I review lots of sites. One thing that baffles me: why do bloggers feel the need to show they have a small amount of readers? I’m talking about blogs that want to be an authority in their niche, have advertising on their site…in other words, it is not a personal blog and the blog leans [...]
