Is PR Missing Out on the Mobile Revolution?
PR, as an industry, is not known for being a group of early adopters. Social media has been a bit of an exception. While the entire industry may not have adopted social media early on, many of social media’s early evangelists came from the field of PR. The argument is that there was an obvious [...]
The Mobile Social Media Developments That Really Matter
We live in a bubble. A shiny bouncy little digitally happy/snarky bubble. Does it really matter which operating system, mobile phone, app market, browser or cloud service has the largest market share? Not really. What the various companies do with that market share is only slightly more relevant. What’s REALLY important is how people, not geeks [...]

Several months ago I put on my futurist hat and I wondered, “What is the worst thing that could happen with social media?” Maybe it’s because I was reading way too much cyberpunk at the time but this is what I came up with. I’ve been sitting on it because I wasn’t sure what to [...]
82% of Teens Watch TV Online. 48% Watch TV on Cell Phones.
Teenagers watch TV online. No big shocker right? According to a Horrowitz Associates recent study, almost all teens watch TV online at least once a month. Half watch TV on their phones monthly. This study purposely excludes online only content. Their parents and older siblings are much further behind. Almost half watch some news and [...]
Geeks Tolerate Apple Hypocrisy Until They Mess with Porn
I’ve posted several times about Apple’s continued hypocrisy and my love/hate relationship with their products. Like most people, I love their design and I’m glad they’re pushing the industry but I have always hated their closed culture and hyper controlling attitude. Full disclosure I used to work at HP (who is now a client). Microsoft, [...]
