  • My current opinion of crypto

    If you believe crypto is the future, or if you believe it is a pyramid scheme, please read this entire post so that you understand my current opinion on crypto. I hope I articulate it well enough. Also, I want to state at the outset, almost every blog post or tweet about crypto ends up…

  • Seth Godin on NFTs and my background

    Seth Godin: The more time and passion that creators devote to chasing the NFT, the more time they’ll spend trying to create the appearance of scarcity and hustling people to believe that the tokens will go up in value. They’ll become promoters of digital tokens more than they are creators. Because that’s the only reason…

  • The most important blog

    Seth Godin: Even if no one but you reads it. The blog you write each day is the blog you need the most. It’s a compass and a mirror, a chance to put a stake in the ground and refine your thoughts. And the most important post? The one you’ll write tomorrow. His post is…

  • Andy Sylvester on making blogging a priority

    Andy Sylvester: The other important part of the habit was making it a priority (I tried writing at lunch before, but ran out of time after web surfing, so I changed the order and – voila – I was able to write!). Writing first works for Andy. It also works for others like Fred Wilson…

If you want them to read the precise words, stand quietly until they do. If you want to paraphrase the words, that can…

  • Choosing without deciding

    Seth Godin: We can save a lot of time and effort by making our meaningless choices effortless. Pick the first one, or the one in alphabetical order or flip a coin. Merely have a rule and make the choice. This point made by a recent post by the inimitable Seth Godin strikes the same chord…

  • Avoid being great at Twitter

    Seth Godin: You can be good at Twitter in about five minutes a day. Spending ten minutes doesn’t make you twice as good… in fact, there’s probably little measurable improvement. To be great at Twitter might take five hours of daily effort. At over 48,000 tweets I do not need any more Twitter practice. Lately…

  • I agree with Seth, read more blogs

    Seth Godin, on his blog: Other than writing a daily blog (a practice that’s free, and priceless), reading more blogs is one of the best ways to become smarter, more effective and more engaged in what’s going on. The last great online bargain. I obviously agree with Seth. Everyone should blog. And should read blogs.…
