Posted January 12th, 2009 by admin | 1 CommentLike I mentioned in my last post, I’m fairly picky about who I follow on Twitter, this is especially true when it comes to companies. I find that following a company on Twitter is generally more annoying than it is useful.

Productivity in the Upper Ranks?
Posted October 9th, 2008 by admin | No CommentsI just read the latest blog from Seth Godin where he posed a few simple questions to make us all think about our own productivity and general web-competence.
This got me thinking about how the upper ranks of a technology/SaaS/Web company would respond to the questions. Just how many of the tasks could a VP or [...]
