Corporate Disobedience – Operation Chokehold

By Dan Morrill on December 15, 2009

Well this is interesting from a civil/corporate disobedience viewpoint, and an interesting way of looking at flash mobbing a place/product/service to see what the upward limits are. Fake Steve Jobs has proposed that IPhone users try to bring the AT&T 3G network to its knees and is asking everyone who has an IPhone to launch […]

By Dan Morrill on December 8, 2009

Image by Steve Rhodes via Flickr Looking for input from readers on how they conduct a job search using social media tools.

Fun Social Recommendation Site Likaholix

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.

Twitter Facebook Fantasy Football and other productivity losses

Twitter Facebook Fantasy Football and other productivity losses

By Dan Morrill on October 26, 2009

Just a quick note this morning on the idea of random numbers and productivity losses around the use of social networking, but other sacred cows like Fantasy Football we shrug at.

Industry Expert Panel Discussion on Data Privacy

Industry Expert Panel Discussion on Data Privacy

By Dan Morrill on October 20, 2009

We all have a vested interest in how data and data privacy is enacted by companies, regardless of the environment, cloud, mobile (laptop, cell phones), private Data Center, or anything else that is a combination of the above. Companies have a vested interest in keeping their customers data private and clear of distortion or error. […]

Crowdsourcing Ideas: Apparently Marijuana Is All California Needs

Crowdsourcing Ideas: Apparently Marijuana Is All California Needs

By Hutch Carpenter on August 28, 2009

California has several big issues that need to be tackled. Our state budget seems to perpetually be in deficit mode, with drawn-out battles for resolving the red ink. The education system, once a shining jewel in the world, now produced some of the low test scores in the country. The state infrastructure must be upgraded […]
