I recently stumbled across a visual map of the web 2.0 landscape, created by John Battelle and team, called Points of Control. (Note: If you’re interested in social media and you’re not familiar with John Battelle, check him out… He’s the Program Chair of the Web 2.0 Summit, and his nearly 40,000 followers on Twitter […]

AOL: AOL announced its earnings this week. The most interesting part of the report: “Revenues decreased 17% ($207 million) to $1.0 billion, due to a 26% decline ($165 million) in Subscription revenues and a 6% decrease ($33 million) in Advertising revenues. The decline in Subscription revenues reflects mainly a decrease in domestic AOL brand subscribers, […]

Yelp burned a bridge with me this week, and I’m defecting to the Rummble beta. Rummble is London-based mobile + web 2.0 start-up that provides geographically relevant recommendations and reviews from likeminded people. My frustration with Yelp started when I got an email from my dentists’ office… Earlier this year, I wrote a glowing review […]

Last year, I wrote a post with predictions for mobile in 2007 and beyond, using inCode’s “Top 10 Global Wireless Predictions for 2007” as a starting point. We’re almost 2 months into 2008, and it’s the perfect time to re-visit those predictions to see what came true, and make a few more predictions for 2008 […]

Tomorrow marks the 1 year anniversary of the publication of one of my most popular posts to date: “Using Social Media to Sell Products to Kids…Interesting but Potentially Dangerous.” In that post, I talk at length about how toy manufacturer Ganz is using the internet and social networking principles to market and promote its very […]

If you like my blog, this video will make you laugh, cry, or both! Ahhhhh…. How refreshing to see something emerge from Silicon Valley that doesn’t take itself or the crazy wild world of web 2.0 too seriously.

At the end of November, I published a Dear Abby-esque post on Plaxo Pulse. In it, my friend, Paul emailed me to get my opinion on Plaxo Pulse, and I didn’t have many (okay, ANY) positive things to say about it. So, it was with great amusement that I read Michael Arrington’s post on TechCrunch […]
