Ed — Wed, 03 Dec 2008 00:48:01 +0000

In this video: The difference between design by democracy and design by dictatorship. While you must listen others input and advice at the end of the day one person needs to make the call when it comes to designing a logo. The more you let the decision be driven by a committee and appease everyone the less chance you have of achieving a strong mark to build your identity off of.

In this video: I discuss why I’m no longer going to try and define Services 2.0. I will continue talking about how you should be delivering services to business. However, I’m dropping the ’2.0′ moniker.

‘The Hype Machine’ – Deserves more hype!

Ed — Fri, 29 Sep 2006 17:19:04 +0000

Another sub-20 year old has turned the music industry on its head, but not many people know it yet.

Anthony Volodin, a 20 year old student, has created The Hype Machine. The Hype Machine scans MP3 blogs for people posting messages about bands and songs. It aggregates all the “hype” and then posts them all to pages on The Hype Machine. The site features a media player, playing what is being “hyped.” With the click of a mouse you can buy what you like from Amazon and iTunes. All MP3′s is finds are cached on its servers. Try searching for something. You most likley find it.

Anthony’s concept is so simple. The really good ones are!

It has been a long time sense I installed something that has captured my attention for so long. Yes I know that Google Earth has been out for a long time, but I just installed on my G5 and have played with it everyday for at least an hour sense doing so.
