I took a quick walk over to the Apple Store at Lenox Square Mall in Atlanta today to check out the scene before the iPhone launch. At 1 p.m. there were upwards of 185 people there – and it was growing by the minute. I just purchased a new phone (a Moto Q) a few […]
Penelope Trunk had an interesting post yesterday about generational ID’s. You may think you’re a Baby Boomer or in Generation Y just because of the year you were born in. But, how about identifying with a generation by how they use various forms of media? Check out the test she put together and see if you’re really acting […]
Heather at Microsoft posted the funny video below, which I wanted to pass along. It does a good job if showing how ignorant companies can be when trying communicate with their consumers. The dating analogy is perfect. This also seems like a good time to mention that I was FINALLY able to get Windows Live Writer […]

What led to Bennett’s ouster? Here’s how Josh Centor from the Double A Zone […]
I’m a day late, but there was a good article in yesterday’s New York Times about how marketers are targeting the population of high school athletes, which to my surprise, is 7.2 million strong. As a former high school athlete, this story is of great personal interest to me. My take-away from this story is […]
Having worked at the 1994, 1996 and 2000 Olympics, and been raised in Atlanta and lived through the fun that was (pre-Grey’s Anatomy) Izzy, I have a personal interest in Monday’s announcement of the logo for the 2012 Olympics in London. To say what was unveiled Monday has gotten a negative reaction would be an […]
