Convergence

One of the cool things that I see happening again and again is the convergence that happens in Social Media. Personal and Professional lives converge and people make connections that never would have happened otherwise. This has always happened in Face to Face networks but the obvious limiting factors in such instances are geography and […]

The Internet Comes Alive

Well really it is your computer that is getting livelier but it sounds better (scarier?) to say the Internet. I have asserted for years that my kids will be able to reminisce “remember when computers used to be 2D?” That time is quickly drawing near. In the 70’s and 80’s we heard a lot about […]

Click

Sometimes that is all it takes. Click and all the pieces fall into place. In our case that is usually what happens.

Change Drives the Internet

The way the Internet works today, in January of 2011, is different from the way it worked in January of 2010 and so completely different from the way it worked in January of 2001 as to be completely unrecognizable. One of our clients made the comment “I hate old-fashioned web sites” the other day. And […]

Local search is where it is at for service related companies. Whether your service is landscaping, roofing, dry-cleaning or computer support, it only makes sense that you would do most if not all of your business in and around your local community.
