It’s really interesting for me, being in this business because my husband is also self-employed, as a renovation contractor. Both of us, despite being in completely different fields, share a lot in common (replace the word “renovation, renovator” for “online, project team”):

Everyone thinks they can do his job…so why does it cost so much? e.g.”What? [...]

a product shout-out

I was whining at the Mad Austrian (my husband) for 2 years, since renovations we were doing meant that our clothesline had to go. Finally, we have a deck off our kitchen. And damn! – I wanted a place to hang our laundry out to dry. Finally, this past weekend….we found the clothesline of our [...]

almost a really nice lost password experience. almost.

I like lost password flows…mainly because I have no memory. And I’m signed up to way too many sites.

casasugar.com (a member of the Sugar family of sites) impressed me…and then dropped the ball, I think.

I do the “lost password” thing.
I get an email with the typical link. Which I click on.

there’s this theory I have…

A friend shared a cool report on fb about teen media use and online habits, and it got me thinking about one observation as a whole:

“Teens are NOT abandoning TV for new media: In fact, they watch more TV than ever, up 6% oveer the past five years in the U.S.”

Huh. Which kind of makes [...]

sad change

An excerpt from a friend’s blog, writing about a colleague’s sudden death from a heart attack at age 50: “However, when it comes to death, we reminisce.
