“i have a confession to make”
Bad businesses part I
It’s 6:30 a.m. I got two and a half hours of sleep on my red eye. Why, oh why would you put bars on the chairs and make it impossible for me to sleep? Things like this make me hate giving you money and you know what? That’s bad for you too. No wonder most of you are bankrupt.

“we came here to see the mahler!”
contextual advertising
What if this ad unit was digital and could tell when a customer was nearby? Here i am, proud owner of a 6682 looking at this ad. What if it could highlight the fact that i have some expertise on the product? Or maybe educate me on a feature (moblogging anyone?) or an upgrade? Maybe hard to execute, but done well wouldn’t that be powerful?

Ok, so raise your hand if you’ve gotten the email being sent around about how unique this moment is?
..put your hands down, you look silly. Seriously.
Apparently, we’re not going to see this again in our lifetimes. In fact, it won’t happen for another thousand years…..
Uhhh and your point is? If you stayed awake just to witness this, I ask you: why? I just looked at the clock at 1 and thought to myself "Oh yeah, that stupid email that went around was about now right?" But I’m always up at this time. If you sacrificed sleep for it, I want to know why.
More importantly, was it worth it?
That’s what I thought. Get back to sleep.
