Parents & Mobile

I’m at that age where many of my friends are in the process of having kids (hopefully not while reading this!), or just had their first child. Many conversations I have these days revolve around the newly created relationships between young, recently married couples and their first child.  Memories and perhaps regrets of how they [...]

Powerade needs an aide

I was happily camping a couple weeks back with some buddies in Pismo. On one of our regular visits to the convenient store I saw a mobile call to action for Powerade! The promotion was to win prizes for their World Cup sweepstakes. The print call to action had cool soccer players in the background [...]

A place to suck up your data plan!

Just announced today, all Starbucks in the U.S. will provide free, one click, no registration WiFi! This is great, and I for one will take advantage as I enjoy my $8 coffeeish drink while my cloths absorb the aroma of burnt coffee.

Somebody going to get a hurt real bad!

Wrong Turn by Right Guard -

I was reading ESPN mobile earlier today and saw a call to action mobile banner by Right Guard. Normally, I don’t click on banners. Not on the web and rarely on mobile. Call to actions on web nor mobile are convincing enough for me. However, this call to action on the mobile banner was to [...]

Digital drowns the Post Office

The end of my mailbox being flooded everyday by direct markers whose coupons, post cards and devilishly disguised envelopers that make it seem like I’m  going to get a check but really am entitled to $1 off pizza may soon be near! I’m a hater of junk mail to the greatest extent. I refuse to [...]

Egregious Termination Fees by Carriers, an FCC thang’

Even with the FCC having the Carriers (and Google) submit responses to an investigation, early termination fees on a Carrier such as Verizion may not fall below the $350 fee anytime soon.

Verizon cited higher operational costs & support fees for certain smart phones. (Yup, they really charge $350 for ETF on some smart phones, read [...]
