The ultimate example of asking your customers for feedback: Dell IdeaStorm

27 February 2007 – 12:55 pm

Dell IdeaStorm, which launched earlier this month, is the ultimate example of Seth Godin-style “take something good, innovate, and make it great” thinking.
I love it.
In a nutshell, Dell have turned user feedback into an entire social network site, complete with Digg-style voting, memberships, commenting and all that jazz. It’s a master stroke.

Beating the big boys at their own game…

3 February 2007 – 10:20 pm

Everyone likes a good David and Goliath story. And I’m no exception.
In Australia, rightly or wrongly, Telstra has been the monopoly telecommunications carrier “we love to hate”, which has taken forever to be privatized; and it’s a matter great contention and debate as to how level the playing field is for other service providers. In [...]

Wordpress Plugin: ClassyBody v1.1 Update

2 February 2007 – 9:25 am

I have updated my ClassyBody Wordpress plugin to v1.1 with the addition of ad-hoc custom CSS classes.
To recap, my ClassyBody plugin adds contextually intelligent CSS classes to your BODY tag, giving the more high-powered designers out there much greater control of the CSS of a given Wordpress page. It automatically adds CSS classes telling you [...]

ScobleSearch: one-click targeted searching of Robert Scoble’s RSS feeds

22 January 2007 – 1:50 pm

If the mythology is accurate, you can’t keep up with Robert Scoble’s reading and blogging habits. The quickest look in to what Robert has been reading — although an incomplete look at that — is his Link Roll over at Google Reader.

15 January 2007 – 7:13 pm

Andy Beard has just launched a new site to promote custom buttons on the latest Google Toolbar. What was his first button? SEM Search, along with Megite’s SEM aggregator.
Man, this is really sexy stuff. I love it!

12 January 2007 – 11:27 am

digg_url = ‘http://www.digg.com/tech_news/Cast_your_vote_for_MarketingMeme_a_new_techmeme_sibling_site’;Do you feel, like I do, that us SEO/SEM/PR folk are getting our stuff lost in the tech “noise” over at TechMeme?

digg_url = ‘http://digg.com/tech_news/Google_powered_SEO_Search_Engine’;Like many of us in the SEO/SEM/SMO game, I thought it was great when Lee Odden of TopRank recently released his OPML file of SEM blogs to the public.
