A few new domains registered

2007-06-21T16:45:23Z

I'm all a' Twitter(.com)

2007-06-11T21:14:08Z

I finally got around to joining Twitter. I'm not sure how to describe it really. I'll have to see how I feel about it once I add some friends. It's for the texting generation. I'm alas, not much on texting because it's not really needed when y...

I'm still at the Sree & Anil Dash show at Columbia. He just mentioned having a blog is a great way to pull all of your personal information in to one place. Unfortunately, Vox does things their own way. So if you want to check out my LinkedIn ...

2007-03-16T19:40:46Z

A friend of mine at an interactive agency sent this viral video to me today. Is it a clever and subtle ad for Nokia, or just a cool raw recording of the band Naturally7 doing an acapella version of their hit on the Paris Metro to get attention? ...

Using social networking to share cabs & network on planes (and maybe hook up)

2007-03-13T17:34:58Z

One of my former co-workers liked to quote me in conversations about web2.0: "In the end, the 'net is about hooking up". Yes I said that. While you're surfing on your lunch hour finding new ways to hook up, check out Hitchsters--a social networ...

Quick point about SEO

2007-03-02T17:10:48Z

The previous post took 11 minutes to show up on a Google alert via the word "Chupick". If that doesn't illustrate the value of blogging to put the right results on Google, I don't know what does.
