January 23, 2010

Well, thesixtyone.com decided to make a change to the user interface and its experience altogether and there has been an upheaval of sorts. Some people don’t like change, especially when it is a bad one. So, I thought I’d take a look at the music site. I had forgotten about t61. I’m a fan of [...]

November 19, 2009

So, Mr. Arrington calls the events surrounding a now fired CEO from TweetPhoto and the challenge to a blogger to remove an on-the-record interview of said now fired CEO, “Amateur Hour” and I have to agree up until the law firm gets involved. Here is my angle on this, and it comes from my own [...]
