Workday Flash Mob @ HR Tech

Workday Flash Mob @ HR Tech

By Zoli Erdos on October 12, 2011

Chinese Wall.  Separation of State and Church.  You know the drill.  No mingling of author content and Sponsor posts.  (Hint: that’s what the scrolling side widget is for.) Except when they are too funny to miss.  Like Workday, with their Flash Mob Lunch during the HR Tech Conference. Enjoy. 🙂

Notes from my own Start Up

Notes from my own Start Up

By Dan Morrill on December 22, 2010

One of the reasons that I have not been blogging as much as I would have normally is that I am in the throws of a start up launch. We will be officially started on the new year, and I promise not to spam everyone with a PR note in your e-mail box extolling the […]

Reputation and Game Mechanics Are the Future of Social Software

Reputation and Game Mechanics Are the Future of Social Software

By Hutch Carpenter on April 2, 2010

I still think that reputation and game mechanics are the future of social software. Tweet by Paul Pedrazzi, VP, Strategy & Innovation at Oracle Corporation What an intriguing, and provocative, statement by Paul Pedrazzi. At first blush, I can hear your thoughts…”What? C’mon!” Which is exactly how most innovations start. The reason it’s provocative is […]

Startup Weekend in Haiti

Startup Weekend in Haiti

By Dan Morrill on February 23, 2010

This is one of the best ideas I have seen all month, taking startup weekend directly to Haiti to help and provide support for budding programmers and entrepreneurs in the earthquake stricken country. If anything will add a bit of hope to that country, startup weekend is one of our best American assets we could […]

Social Media as Storytelling

Social Media as Storytelling

By Dan Morrill on February 17, 2010

The more I look at social media, the more it reminds me of storytelling. A person can be telling stories around a camp fire with a small audience, or telling stories around the world in mass releases of information. The better the story the more people that will engage with the subject and the better […]

Welcome Computer Engineer Barbie

Welcome Computer Engineer Barbie

By Dan Morrill on February 16, 2010

In an idea that is on the order of “about time”, Mattel introduced Computer Engineer Barbie on the 12th of February 2010. Let us hope that this helps solve part of the problem with women and girls going into Computer Science. The problem is solvable, it will just take the concerted efforts of parents and […]

Pantagraph News to Readers: you need a time out

Pantagraph News to Readers: you need a time out

By Dan Morrill on January 7, 2010

For many people who own web sites that have articles that allow comments, the free for all that sometimes erupts around “discourse” can often degenerate into an abusive diatribe pitting Republican against Democrat in the best right wing/left wing nut job symbolism out there. Take your pick – we have all dealt with Trollish behavior […]

Twitter Marketing Hell: New Site by Steven Hodson

Twitter Marketing Hell: New Site by Steven Hodson

By Dan Morrill on January 6, 2010

Steven Hodson has to be one of my favorite people to read online, and over the holidays he put together a “Wall of Shame” for bad twitter marketers. I hope he lets me write for him on this one, as I have plenty of good examples, not just from my Techwag Twitter, but from my […]

Image by Thomas Hawk via Flickr Imagine a company that built one of the coolest social networking apps I have used all year got bought out by Facebook. In the fear and panic that followed that buy out, many people migrated to Facebook wondering what was going to happen to the company that got bought […]

Fun Social Recommendation Site Likaholix

By Dan Morrill on December 7, 2009

Image by Likaholix via CrunchBase I have been playing with Likaholix for the last week, and have ended up really enjoying the web site and the potential that it creates for people to share the things they do like. This is so much better than Yelp, and without all the drama that Yelp represents. Quite […]
