Get at me!

This is a quickie – I’ll randomly post brands that I was thinking about that would be fun to work with.

Johnny Rockets & Atkins are two I was thinking about today.

A mobile site (and/or iPhone app) for JR with location finder, nutrition info and fun bells and whistles would be cool. For Atkins, a strategy [...]

HTC Hero – It’ll Save You!

In response to Shehzad’s “HTC…No One’s Hero”

Anyhow, I’m monitoring the various news feeds and short messages being flung around about the mobile convention (CTIA) this very [...]

Social Media Day!

I had the privilege of sitting on a panel earlier today on Social Media hosted by IPN (International Professionals Network). The panel was moderated by Naveed Lalani the co-founder of Piryx (payments for the social web) and included Tyler Willis of Involver and Lynne Humphrey a social media consultant. The focus of the panel was [...]
