My MacVim Disclaimer
by
Since I often end up talking about my love of Vim keybindings in reference to any writing app, I figured I’d take the time to simply write it out once and link back in the future. I use Vim (well MacVim) to write code all day. The highlight of Vim for me, is the extensive…

Getting Customers for a New Product
by
I’ve mentioned before that I have a product in the works so I’m obviously interested in how to get customers for it. While there are a number of good tips in the article a few seem off base, or at least shady. Build a network of landing pages that target various other long tail keywords…

Get Out of Your Office
by
I mentioned in [recent post][pay] that I ride my bike as a way to clear my head and ‘pay myself’ each week. Really if your not taking the time off that you need each week then your doing your clients a disservice since you’ll never be able to apply your full brain power to the…

Don’t Hire the Lucky People
by
I must admit that I’m the unkept person that has some spelling mistakes in [this story][story] about finding the right staff to hire. > “Wait,” said Oscar, “but surely all things being equal, the person who takes the time to get the email right is better than the person who doesn’t?” As the character Ernestine…

Twitter as a Free Service
by
A recent comment on my post about staying away from services with no business models noted the irony that they found the link to the post via my Twitter account. Twitter if course is by an large a free service, but it’s not really a service that has no business model. Currently Twitter has the…

Looking at the Rules

I know that I am totally guilty of complaining about things when I should just Harden Up. Twitter is particularly bad for that…

It Seems that Targeted Traffic Comes not from large Tech Sites
by
I never really planned on hitting up the big tech sites but it’s nice to have some confirmation. My original start-up, eNovella, and its latest incarnation, Jottify, have each been featured on TechCrunch…The day that eNovella was featured, we got 26 referrals from TechCrunch. The day that Jottify was featured – with a video and…

Mavic Aksium 5000km Review
by
Update May 15, 2012: About 2 weeks ago I blew through 2 more rear spokes on the non-drive side at the head (not the nipple near the rim). Mavic offered to take it back and rebuild it, then decided to simply ship out a new one. I was going to leave the update on this…

Stay Away from Services with No Business Model
by
I won’t be using your service if you have no business model. I’m glad the product is free but I have no way of gauging your end game so I’m simply not interested no matter how cool it is. Freedcamp inspired this post today. The service looks decent but I have no idea what their…

Perspective on Your Role
by
Most of us want to be the star, or at least recognized but is that really your place? I’m a support rider and I like doing it. Working in a good team for a good leader can be more rewarding than winning a race for yourself. That’s Steve Cummings speaking to Procycling Magazine in the…
