  • Is This the Future of Newspapers?

    Online readers of the Miami Herald have a new option – donate to the paper.  Are newspapers the new PBS?

    Gotta love the Irish for their ability to laugh in the face of injustice.

  • Les Trompeurs

    Here’s a good video of Thierry Henry cheating his way into the World Cup. Sad, really. Thi sis why my non-soccer friends won’t watch soccer.

  • Headed to Womma

    I’m headed out with some of the other fine members of Team Spring Creek to check out the Womma summit in Las Vegas. If you are headed to the event, please be sure to find me via text, email, twitter or your other favorite social media channel….

  • Thanks UW CIE

    Thanks to Professor Mina Yoo and the folks over at the UW Lavin Entrepreneur Program for letting me wax philosophic for 2 hours about Social Media and small business. It’s always nice to get to test a few theories in front of a new audience, so thanks for the invitation.

  • Oprah’s Flash Mob

    You’ve probably seen this, but this is a pretty cool Flash mob. I have no idea how they pulled this off.

  • Wild MLS Finish

    Whether you are a soccer fan or not, if you like sports in general, you have to appreciate the final weekend of the MLS season this Saturday and Sunday.

    An 8 team playoff starts next week, with significant advantages for the top 2 seeds in each division.  And going into the 30th and final game, 6 teams have punched their ticket, with 6 more teams battling for the final 2 spots.  There are about 1000 permutations for which 2 teams will sneak in.

    Furthermore, in the West, the 4 teams that have already qualified all have 45, 45, 45, and 44 points respectively.  What that means is that virtually any combination of teams could be 1,2,3,4.  

    TV wise, it couldn’t have worked out any better for MLS, as every game this weekend has playoff implications.  Since few of the teams in the race are playing each other, every team has an important game.

    I bring this up for our non-soccer fans, to ask you to imagine what the last weekend of November would look like for NCAA football fans, if 6-8 teams had to win to grab the final spots of an 8 team playoff….that would be fun…
