What I did on my vacation

If you always loved seeing slides from other people’s vacations, you are going to LOVE this blog post!

A Tale of Two Twitters

Dear Reader,
There are several companies, I love to hate, Microsoft, AT&T, Comcast, Sprint and Firestone to name a few. There are also companies I absolutely adore, Skype, Southwest Airlines, php|architect are all in that category. So it really chaps my ass when I have to say nice things about a company from the first list [...]

Twitter For Marketers

Dear Reader,
Most of you who know me know that I spend way too much time on twitter.com. During all that time, I’ve learned a lot about twitter and the twitter community. I’ve seen companies succeed using it to talk to their customers and seen companies fall flat on their face. I even recorded an episode [...]

Dear Reader,
Tonight I was invited to attend the Nashville Technology Council’s panel discussion titled “Using Social Networking to Increase ROI”. Merrell Ligons invited me to attend as he was on the panel. Also on the panel were Jon Henshaw of Sitening and my buddy Marcus Whitney of Remarkable Wit.
I’ll be honest, [...]

New Addition to My Blog Roll

Dear Reader,
I’ve added a link in my blog roll but since a lot of you just pull the feed I thought I’d post so everyone can enjoy this. I added a link to daytonatwentyfour.com. He’s one of the genius’ behind the Too Old to Grow Up podcast. (Which I now subscribe to) If [...]

Amsterdam Wrap-up: The Directors Cut

A good chunk of this blog post was posted over at DevZone. However, this one contains more personal observations and general nuttiness.
I’ve just returned from my second trip to the Netherlands and, as with the first one, I had a wonderful time. This time, I was honored to speak at the PHP Business Seminar [...]

Podcasting Advice from a Non-Expert.

Dear Reader,
The following is an email I sent to a friend who asked me for podcasting advice. I’ll state up front that I am not a podcating expert nor am I a new media guru. There are others who fill those slots nicely. However, I have picked up a few tips and tricks. [...]

Dear Reader,
Over at the Small Business Idea Forum, Staci asked about twitter and I replied. This, along with a couple of other things today are pointing me towards a blog post and possible a podcast this weekend.
Twitter has gone from WTH to ZOMG to “Hey, I can use this for my benefit!” I [...]

Dear Reader,
My breakfast buddy Bill Seaver posted a real interesting post on his blog titled “Blogs Will Kill The Web Design Star”. I started a comment to it but it quickly grew into a post by itself. So before you read this, go visit Bill’s blog and read it. (and while you are surfing, [...]

CIO Magazine: Take 2

Dear Reader,
Since I posted originally railing against CIO Magazine for their article, “You used PHP to Write WHAT?!?” I felt it only fair that I point out to you that they have now posted an article written by my friend John Coggeshall, “PHP’s Enterprise Strengths and Weaknesses, Take 2″.
I’ve got a more detailed post over [...]
