Musings, thoughts... How far to cast the net, and how to make sure people can still find their way back to you on th'interweb. Maybe rise to a new approach of "organic aggregation"... Digg yourself, so others can digg you?

DPCI: What TweenBots Can Teach About Federating Tasks posted 1 year, 11 months ago

I was so inspired by those cute little TweenBots and it got my wheels turning about how with a crystal clear, intuitive user interface, it's possible to do ad hoc crowdsourcing with a specific goal in mind. Pretty powerful if it can be applied to higher level tasks, such as content development workflows.

Everyone's Got 'Em posted 2 years, 9 months ago

This blog examines how peer ratings, and feedback mechanisms allow your site's visitors to take a stake in your content. These "engaged" visitors are more likely to become active participants, and help drive additional attention and traffic to your site. If this fits your business model, it's a worthwhile strategy to explore.

Beyond Keywording posted 2 years, 9 months ago

In order to further engage site visitors, it's important to realize that applying editorial intelligence goes beyond the content of an article or blog, but into the ancillary information presented on the page. There are a number of approaches to increase the relevance (and thereby value) in order to capture interest, increase site stickiness, and add value to the online experience.

iWant an iPhone posted 2 years, 9 months ago

A personal confession, but also a reflection on decision process, buying strategy, and fighting my lizard-brain reflexes to want the newest, shiniest gadgets as a matter of course.

Why Build a Website In the First Place? posted 3 years ago

This entry discusses some of the questions that should be considered as individuals and organizations consider adding (or expanding) their web presence. It can be very easy to get lost in the "how" without first answering the "why", and without a clearly defined "how", measuring a site's success is near impossible.
