I am writing this while sitting at a Barnes & Noble which just happens to have a Starbuck’s attached. Part of the sequence of logging in to use their free WiFi is a welcome screen announcing that you can read free digital comics while at comics courtesy of Marvel. Marvel Digital Comics is offering the [...]

WordPress App Still Needs a Little More
June 11th, 2011 Chris Doelle Okay, so I finally broke down and used the WordPress app. I have had it for months, but didn’t want to go through the task of setting up the blog(s) and learn the interface. The setup was breezy. The interface was a snap. It was actually looking like something I would use regularly. Well, that [...]

May 25th, 2011 Chris Doelle So, here is a social experiment for you – can social media solve everyday real problems?
Cinch Casting
May 14th, 2011 Chris Doelle Just wanted to do a quick post to mention that I am now Cinch Casting. Cinch is a great little app by the folks that brought us BlogTalk Radio. You can find my cinches online at http://www.CinchCast.com/chris-doelle . It is to podcasting what twitter is to blogging – we’re talking microcasting. Very cool. I am [...]
Food, Inc.
May 2nd, 2011 Chris Doelle Longtime readers know I am a fan of documentaries. I especially like learning about how “the man is keeping us down.” Food, Inc. is not only a great lesson in that but, as someone who has taken a lot of time to educate himself on our food supply, sure to be on my suggested “must [...]

April 25th, 2011 Chris Doelle First, let me reiterate that I have said from day one that the whole GroupOn/Living Social business model is a flawed one. Not only does it fail to attract valuable customers to most businesses using the coupons, but companies give up too much for the new customers it attracts and actually turns existing “profitable” customers [...]

Spammers are at least more entertaining now
Remember the day when you would get a spam comment on your blog kinda like, “Great post,” or “well said,” and a link to some fast-cash-now scheme? Because the spam catching plugins are getting so much better, these doofs are forced to make their automated postings sound more real. The problem? When you have a [...]
