The Best Company Apology EVER

Companies screw up. People screw up. If a company is owned by a person, they’re gonna screw up… at some point. It’s okay to make mistakes. It’s okay to screw up. It’s okay to totally blow it. It’s okay to make a decision and then realize, “OH CRAP, that was a horrible decision.” It’s called experience. It’s […]

NOT OKAY: My Thoughts on Employers Asking Job Seekers for Facebook Password

This is my AREYOUKIDDINGME?! face. Each morning when I get into work, I peruse my RSS feeds for the latest in social and digital media news.

Why the Browns Should Pass on RG3

This post has absolutely nothing to do with the AV industry. I calm myself down by writing. Therefore, I’m going to write about this. <RANT> Do you know who that is? That’s RG3. Robert Griffin III. This year’s Heismann Trophy winner. He’s an extremely sought after prospect for the NFL this year. Now, I love RG3 as much as the […]

Creepy Digital Signage in the SSA

So, there I was, at the Social Security Administration office yesterday getting my name legally changed. I’m in the quiet waiting room, a very old, quiet waiting room, sitting among the 30+ other people, and I look up. There, on the wall, among old stuff, is a nice, shiny, new, SHARP Aquos digital signage display with information […]

Fuggedaboutit Friday: Be Honest, You Know You Do This…

Be honest, you know that at some point in your life, you’ve done that thing where you walk into a bathroom, the shower curtain is closed, and you HAVE TO OPEN IT before you use the potty.

Roy Williams Tie Choice > Outcome of Duke vs. UNC Game

I am a Carolina Basketball fan. No, I did not go to Carolina. Despite this detail, I do sometimes refer to Carolina as “us” or “we” in sentences. As in: “We really need to work on our rebounding” or “I can’t believe UNLV beat us” or “Why did we EVER recruit Neil Fingleton?” However, despite the fact that my alma mater, quite literally, is the dyslexic […]

Why Apple Didn’t Need to Advertise During the Super Bowl

A lot of people are giving Apple a hard time for not using the 2012 Snore Super Bowl to advertise. Samsung took a lot of silent, or not-so-silent, jabs at Apple and the iPhone with their commercials, and many Apple fans and Apple haters are thinking that not advertising wasn’t a smart move for Apple. I disagree. A whole lot. […]
