Beauty is Better Than Brains

Chris Dannen — Tue, 02 Dec 2008 18:56:54 -0500

It's no wonder Detroit's Big Three are failing; we hold them to a very high standard. We want cars that look good and function well, and why shouldn't we? We spend a lot of money on them, and use them constantly. But what about the other invaluable products in our lives -- our gadgets?

Objects of Design

Anne C. Lee — Tue, 25 Nov 2008 15:15:22 -0500

Made from stainless steel, Pyrex and silicone, the 11-oz. teapot by Joey Roth was originally created as part of his college portfolio. The clear body enables you to watch the tea leaves unfurl--and the pot itself was designed to look better with some wear and tear. Making tea is now officially cool. Even cooler? The sustainable packaging.

Marketer's Guide to Semantic Web: Solving Social Media Measurement

Marta Strickland — Thu, 30 Oct 2008 22:29:27 -0400

http://threeminds.organic.com/2008/10/solving_social_media_measurement.h... It's one of the toughest marketing challenges of recent times... how do we measure the success of social media? I see countless posts everyday where someone says they have it figured out, or that it will never be figured out, but nothing quite measures up to the need. How do you measure the success of a human conversation?

I want to know examples of free business web sites that helped grow your business?

Earl Sigmund — Wed, 03 Sep 2008 19:14:04 -0400

I have always been told that the INTERNET leveled the playing field for small business owners. Many Business web sites provide free innovative marketing techniques (wg. Google Alert, I want Sandy.com) in hopes that you click on the advertising or that you supply personal data on the free technology site. Have these sites made money? Will the free sites survive? What other free business tools sites have you used to grow your business?

This tech expo is all about average Joes and Janes. It's the rare consumer-electronics show that allows actual consumers in the door. (Take that, CES!) More than 60,000 geeks will test-drive new toys. And the nerdiest can enter contests, including Fastest Geek (build a working computer from scratch, stat) and the Innovators Challenge, in which 25 firms vie for funding before a panel of VCs and tech writers -- after a consumer vote, of course.

What the Heck is ICANN Doing?

Christopher Parente — Thu, 03 Jul 2008 20:49:16 -0400

Last week stories broke about a significant change in the way Internet addressing will be managed. The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) has opened up the process of assigning new top level domains (TLD's), such as .com and .net. Potentially any string of letters could be a TLD -- maybe we'll see www.products.walmart? However there appears to be lots of procedures to iron out before any prospective new TLDs hit the market.

I would point to the fact the 8 gb model will only cost $199 and the 16 GB for $299 as the most remarkable detail. It will launch July 11 in 22 countries, expanding to 70 countries by the end of the year.
