Remote Office, Island Style
I decided to finally take advantage of self employment and remote office from my folks’ condo in beautiful South Padre Island, Texas. More information, photos, etc, are forthcoming but as I sit here, surrounded by sun and sand, drinking a Dos Equis and responding to e-mails, I wanted to get a few thoughts out. First, [...]
Branding, Viral Content a la Matthew Inman
Matthew Inman is a goddamned genius. For those of you not familiar, he is the guy behind The Oatmeal. I found The Oatmeal just a few months ago. It is now one of my favorite sites. Inman is hilarious, plain and simple. He’s also an internet marketing stud, having taken The Oatmeal from concept to [...]
FTC Settlement in Big Payday Loan Case
http://www.ftc.gov/opa/2011/03/everprivate.shtm I just saw this settlement come through. If you work in the payday loan space, you’re no doubt familiar with FTC vs. Swish Marketing and Jerry Klein, a.k.a. the “prechecked opt in buried in the footer” case.

In addition to recently passing a corporate tax bill making it one of the least favorable places to do business in the industrialized world, Illinois – who I would think is begging for companies to come within their borders – is working on [...]
What Do I Do For A Living?
Like lots of folks working online, I have a tough time explaining to my family exactly what I do for a living. As a few family events approach (party in Chicago/reunion in Indianapolis, golf trip in Indiana), I can almost hear my Dad’s typical reaction of “I don’t friggin’ know – ask him.” It can [...]
Following your dreams
My buddy Billy Kay is a successful online marketer, Las Vegan, musician, and now – music video star! Billy’s doing what he loves: Making music and sharing it. Granted, he probably has a bit more disposable income for these projects than most guitar pickers, but still, you gotta give the guy a hand for going [...]
2011 Resolutions
At the risk of sounding smug (no – me?), life is pretty freakin’ good right now. Work is going great. Deciding to start my own company is one of the best things I’ve ever done. Family life is awesome. My weight is back to an acceptable range. I’m really thankful for all of this and [...]
