3 Days until the Olympics

Tuesday, February 9th, 2010

I know I missed a few postings, but I was visiting sick relatives. At least I have some fresh pictures and stories rather just pathetically posting daily in an attempt to become pseudo famous. Today’s celebrity is Jason Priestly, supposedly he and NBC are at the Irish Heather tonight. However if you [...]

“It’s only a model”

Monday, December 7th, 2009

Apparently Games Workshop and their sometimes less than wonderful business practices have made it into the main stream news. Or at least an online website that is more main stream than Bell of Lost Souls.
It’s only a hobby. No one forced anyone to invest time and effort into it, of course being forced [...]

Go Green! Go MBA!

Monday, November 9th, 2009

First of all, full disclosure, I have an MBA, I even have a reputation for being green, or for encouraging corporate social responsibility, for helping people… As part of these efforts I have a number of Google Alerts, RSS Feeds, even LinkedIn Groups that I monitor. Lately I’ve been really busy with my [...]

Blogging on Blogging

Sunday, April 26th, 2009

Is rather popular, both by established and new bloggers. The media form is constantly evolving and there are always new twists, tools, and techniques. Lately I’m seeing a lot of integration of logins and comments. This is probably for the best as I have enough password/login combos to remember.
On Friday we decided [...]

Entrepreneurism

Thursday, April 23rd, 2009

It was also relevant to my day job as it talked about clusters and what is needed to stimulate entrepreneurial activity in Vancouver’s inner-city.
I tried to write this post earlier [...]

Blog your way to a better career (no really)

Tuesday, March 17th, 2009

They mean it this time! Guy Kawasaki’s guest blogger didn’t go quite so far, but some are saying that a blog is the new resume, Resume 2.0 if you will. Maybe in some industries, but in some countries and industries writing online, especially non-anonymously has risks. Doubly so if you tell the [...]

Blog your way to a better career

Wednesday, February 25th, 2009

Not bloody likely. Now I have one person in particular telling me I need to be on Twitter. I’m online too much. Usually it is reading dubious content, but at work I spend a lot of time Googling and keeping up the latest news. Which reminds me I have to finish [...]

Ten steps to starting a business

Friday, February 6th, 2009

Occasionally I write something other than depressing blog postings. I’m starting to get tasked to write for work and for other organizations on topics such as entrepreneurship, sustainability, and corporate social responsibility. I’m still not on Twitter, but apparently if I applied myself I could climb the ranks of the Vancouver blogosphere. [...]
