TweetI have been playing with Highrise for about a week and change now. Overall, I like it and it’s the best effort I have seen of late toward making a lightweight, easy-to-use, organization tool for small groups or individual power users. Features I Like Creating Tasks and Contacts by Email – The ability to create […]
Tweet I just got a ping about this year’s Cool Products Expo at Stanford. The CPE is always one of my favorite events and I always end up seeing at least a few really cool products every time I go. Based on what I see on the website, here are a few products that I’m […]
TweetThere are a lot of good reasons to join start-ups, especially in the web 2.0 space. However, I was talking to a friend of mine from undergrad who mentioned to me that he wanted to join a web 2.0 start-up to “get rich” (as opposed to work with good people, learn, grow, etc). For awhile […]
TweetI was looking at some old college stuff and came across an old Stanford directory from my undergraduate days. Aside from the heft of the book itself, I had forgotten how many local ads (coupons) there were in my college directory. There were pages and pages of coupons from local businesses who wanted to get […]
TweetIt looks like April will be conference month for me. Planning to head out to the Web 2.0 Expo in San Francisco from April 15th – 18th. I’m not sure which days I’ll be there, but drop me a line if you’re planning to attend and perhaps we can meet up. Tweet
TweetI’m filling out my April conference schedule and will be at the EconSM Conference in LA on April 26th. Let me know if you plan to attend — feel free to drop me a line or leave a comment. Tweet
TweetEarlier today I got an email about 37signals’ new Highrise product. In an earlier post I complained about how I was in real need of a tickler-style web application for keeping track of people and to-do items that’s a bit more lightweight than a traditional CRM product. I am going to sign-up to use the […]
TweetIn an old post I kind of thought out loud about whether Evite was broken or stale. The verdict at the time was that it is just stale and probably doesn’t reach the point of qualifying as being broken. I heard that Socializr finally opened up open signups and went and checked it out. After […]
TweetI have been playing with Alexa and Compete data for awhile this evening and was struck by a thought. Many of the complaints I hear about the inaccuracy of user data from the aforementioned services comes from the limited audience sizes, inability to de-duplicate users who work on multiple machines, and a host of other […]
TweetUpdate – A few readers pointed out that the Alexa stats for some of the sites here look a lot stronger if you take a U.S. rank as opposed to a global rank. This is especially true for Trulia, Yelp, Kayak, and Indeed. It’s a point worth noting. I have been doing a lot of […]
