Improve Your Blog Reading Signal to Noise Ratio

Improve Your Blog Reading Signal to Noise Ratio

By Bob Warfield on December 26, 2010

Since I subscribe to almost 200 blogs, it’s critical for me to keep a high signal to noise ratio.  In other words, the posts that show up in my reader need to be things I really want to read.  If I’m spending all my time separating the wheat from the chaff, then I’m wasting my […]

The Human Cloud

The Human Cloud

By Michael Fauscette on December 12, 2010

I spent the past week in the clouds attending Salesforce.com’s Dreamforce conference. Salesforce likes to categorize its products into different "clouds", like sales cloud (sales force automation), service cloud (customer service system), data cloud (crowdsourced contact data), etc. In fact…

Moving "Traditional" Online

Moving "Traditional" Online

By Michael Fauscette on November 22, 2010

I was reading the reports of Rupert Murdock’s upcoming online “newspaper” product and it started a mental thread that I think I need to pull a bit.

There’s quite a bit of back and forth about the Facebook Messaging announcement.  Since a little time has passed, people have settled in and we’re slightly past the hype.  Time for my two cents: Facebook has an opening based on at least two value propositions that I can see.  There is value in a single inbox, though at […]
