Quagmire @ Harvard.

Quoted: 'Quagmire's' speech at Harvard

Apple is kool.

Quoted: Apple has succeeded in doing something that no one else in tech or even cars has done. They've crossed the gender barrier and made people of both genders passionate about what they sell.

Quoted: Why do some organizations look great... and get great results from their design efforts and ads... while others languish in mediocrity? I think it has little to do with who they hire and a lot to do with how they work with their agencies and designers.

Seth on the Kindle...

Quoted: It's for women and women are buying it. The bestseller list of Kindle titles is much less tech-heavy than Amazon's list was in the early days of the web. An Oprah book is #1.

Yikes, if you look at this list of traffic on web2.0 sites, our change from blue.us looks pretty bad (as in, we've cratered off of the map)... Seth's rating of Blue.Us shows us at an Alexa ranking of 250k. Our current rankng is 38k. I'm going to contact him and let him know that our URL changed.

Quoted: A list of around 1,000 Web 2.0 sites, ordered by their Alexa Traffic Ranks.

This is interesting...

Quoted: Remember that the lower the figure, the more growth it indicates. We were somewhat surprised to find that the six players in the Social Bookmarking space saw the most substantial growth in the last six months. This indicates that social bookmarking is heading towards the mainstream.

Peter @ Harvard.

Quoted: 'Peter's' speech at Harvard

Quoted: Why do you have a site? What's your goal? Is it to sell something? To receive email? To spread an idea? Whatever it is, you can probably measure it. And measure it you should. Every other piece of Analytics data is trivial compared to that one number.

I need to do this.

Quoted: Use it as an internal diary, a way of tracking each day so that a month or a year from now, you can look back at where you were and how you dealt with the issue of the day. Even if no one else on your team reads your blog, the act of creating it will be worthwhile.
