Idaho Republicans are in Trouble

I should preface this by stating that I am not a political pundit. I am not a Republican or Democrat. I am the person at the polls who wishes I could vote for NOTA. This is probably the first time I have ever posted about politics. But that being said, I’d like to make a [...]

UPS Whiteboard is pointless

So apparently UPS has some cool ads, done by some cool director. The only thing I really liked was the music, You can listen to the full song here. I don’t watch TV anymore (only what I download of iTunes) so I never saw the commercials. But I did see the billboard while in California, [...]

Micron is blogging

New Media Trifecta (part 1)

There is a “perfect storm” coming to American businesses. Trust – People’s trust is at an all time low (and for very good reason). This doesn’t just effect customer relationships, but also employee, partner and stakeholder relationships. Do your customers trust you? Do your employees trust you? Do you care? (If the answer is no [...]

Consultants and MBAs

It depends. What your goals are? Who are your clients? Experience is obviously much more important. I am [...]
