NYC ocular police?
So there should be fines for this kind of stuff. Or there should at least be some kind of a local design or visual pollution board. While Hunter College may have good intent, these types of annoying neon aphorisms end up hurting the overall feeling of the urban landscape.
Not that we need more bureaucracy in [...]
How to piss off Google…
Is it me or does this product android shot from Uncle Walt’s blog look suspiciously like a Microsoft IE browser? It looks like someone, (not Google) hacked something up and used a windows browser.
If T-Mobile did this screen shot, they are off to a rocky start with the Goog!
It shouldn’t be OK to do this
I know why the city and it’s vendors thinks it’s OK to use the sidewalk as their canvas. They need it to be clear where and where not to drill, build, etc.
I get the utility of it. But as someone who appreciates the city and the urban landscape, this seems like overkill. There must be [...]
Fake lines at the Apple store: Any one want action on a Jobs kibosh?
Wow. If I were a brand manager at Apple, I would not be happy. Seems Orange is paying people to wait in line at their stores to generate false interest in the iPhone.
Jobs & Co will likely respond. Non-genuine behavior is antithetical to the Apple brand and damages its authenticity. Apple doesn’t have to fake [...]
Quick App Review: Evernote
I have officially solved my digital notebook issue.
The need for the notebook comes from the need for a repository for the myriad of details that collect each day that don’t warrant a separate doc, but still have value to later projects or later recall.
I was looking for a solution that would sync among all my [...]
So Microsoft AND Seinfeld have officially jumped the shark??
From the journal: Microsoft Enlists Jerry Seinfeld In Its Ad Battle Against Apple
Perhaps the Bee Movie didn’t do too well and old Jerry’s trying to remain relevant. Don’t get me wrong, I am a big fan of his show…years of laughter from him, George and Kramer.
But this reeks a bit of desperation from both [...]
How to make the most out of the user generated content conversation
Engage in the conversation as EA did when a glitch was discovered in their software. Brilliant rebuttal and a great reputation and character builder their brand. Enjoy.

Wifi in the air… Good or Bad?
My first thought about this article about American Airllines wifi-enabled planes was: “Cool”
But now I have second thoughts.
I usually go cross country once or twice a quarter and I get A LOT done in a cramped, quiet environment. What I believe makes me productive on these trips is the lack of distractions and the resulting [...]
A test post from iphone
So this is a post from on the road. (And a great example why the iPhone will win as a plaftorm for developers)
Nice Social media Illustration
This is a really nice illustration of how social media changes the economics of media production and consumption. Plus its about ice cream too.
