The best marketing is just being real
Sometimes you just want a Brand to be real, stop selling a product and to say thank you : http://youtu.be/bUkN7g_bEAI
Parker, Arizona. Boats. Buddies.
Really enjoyed my trip to Parker. Spent the day on a boat floating. That and being pulled at an unsafe speed.
Going The Distance With A Smart Shoe?
The original idea for the shoe was actually to help the visually impaired navigate the world around them. About 90% of the world’s visually impaired live in developing countries, according to the World Health Organization. Around 20% in India alone.
Here’s why the Internet of things just became very interesting
By integrating a basket of public IoT semiconductor companies (highlighted by Goldman Sachs; note: Making S-E-N-S-E of the next mega-trend) with Google Trends’ data containing the phrase “IoT,” we see that an obvious inflection point does not occur until Q4’13 (see Exhibit 1 below). After six consecutive quarters of net asset outflows by growth managers, those firms have finally started to buy into the IoT theme. During the Q4’13 inflection point, Google Trends’ data traversed from a prolonged period of stagnation to rapid ascension. For the first time in two years, companies looking to explore IoT now have the wind at their backs.

Will Ferrell is short and I am huge
Came across this old picture of me and Will backstage at his Broadway show. I was 50 lbs heavier and he is bending down to make me look tall. He delivered that night one of the best one man shows I have ever seen.
Silicon Harlem is smarter than you think
As a former resident of Harlem I can tell you that the idea of making it a tech hub is brilliant. The proximity to talented graduates, mentors and Columbia combined with low rent, low cost surrounding is ideal. However, what really does it in this case is the culture. This area has more culture than most other areas of town but has yet to see its cultural resurgence. I hope this is it. http://money.cnn.com/2014/07/21/technology/innovationnation/harlem-economy-tech/index.html
