Ever the one to take a controversial stand, especially if it increases hits or readership, John C. Dvorak of Dvorak.com/blog and PCMag.com is predicting in this column that: Every single person working in the media today who experienced the dot-com bubble in 1999 to 2000 believes that we are going through the exact same process and can expect the exact same results—a bust. It’s déjà vu all over again. And since this moment in time is only the beginning of…
A classic post by Nikole Gipps at Small Business Essentials – “The 5 Business Colleagues Your Should Have“. Too many entrepreneurs try to exist in a vacuum instead of seeking out the help and support that can bring them to success. So here it is, the five people you should have on your “team” when you are an entrepreneur: Actually, click the link above and read them on her blog.

I’m a little hot under the collar right now. I stupidly allowed the trial version of Symantec installed on this machine to go ahead and update itself. Bad move, very bad move. You see, Symantec apparently believes it knows better than I when my machine needs to perform some tasks. Like rebooting. I mean, hey, what’s a little reboot amongst friends anyways?

I caught an interesting press release yesterday from SoftScan that says that of all the email they scanned in June, 90.o6% was classified as spam. Even worse, the peak spam rates are truly astonishing. June also saw SoftScan record its highest ever percentage of email classified as spam when it stopped 96.55% of all email scanned, correctly identifying it as junk mail. Narrowly beating February’s record of 96.22%, the high level occurred during a weekend when there is less legitimate business…
Dave Naylor of ‘Can’t Beat a Good Rank’ has screenshots of the new Microsoft ‘Gatineau’ web traffic analytics tool on his blog. It’s interesting that this late in the game, Microsoft believes they can make an impact. Then throw in the fact that Google is giving the service away for free, and one’s got to question where the profit could possibly come from. Heather Havenstein has a post up at Computerworld about the new tool, which should launch late this…
John Clark posts on effective-internet-marketing-blog.com on Social Networking and Business… If you do not allow your people an area to link into you, your group will start to get smaller because there will be one of your competitors who will. This does not exclude any business that exchanges money for its goods or services. We need to realize that things are with out doubt changing for Marketers today. We need to embrace social networking, and so many other things, just…
