A new version of WordPress came out recently and I decided to upgrade only to discover that the data base that is running on this site was a bit old. I had to figure out how to update the data base and something went not quite right with the result that a few of my [...]
Communicate Your Business More Effectively With Graphics
A couple of weeks ago I was in Boulder Co for the annual Duct Tape Marketing coaches gathering and we had a few really good speakers. Lesa Snider, who I have met before, is a really good presenter. She is an evangelist for iStockPhoto.com and is the author of Photoshop CS4: The [...]
Twitter as a Brand Building Tool

The Fraud Department?
I received a call today on the answering machine saying that I had some suspicious activity on my credit card. It left a 1-800 number for me to call the credit card company’s fraud department.
