second thoughts أفــكـــــار ثــانــــيــــــة: July 2009
http://letterfromthe.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html
Second thoughts أفكار ثانية. The countrification of cyberspace (and the web). The firewall of china's so big you can see it from cyberspace. Cant get a day pass at Spotify - sucks to be in your country 'cause it's not available there. you got 3 out of 245 chances of being in the right country to enjoy last.fm. google blocks TOR and other anonymization services. The problem isn't with the law enforcement part. The trouble is that every big party uncritically and eagerly embraced and exploited this bre...

Notes from a 21st Century “Mad” Man: My Digital Devices are Cluttering My Already Cluttered Brain
http://larryclayman.blogspot.com/2012/03/my-digital-devices-are-cluttering-my.html
Tuesday, March 20, 2012. My Digital Devices are Cluttering My Already Cluttered Brain. I remember the thrill I had when I purchased my first Palm Pilot. This handy device would help me organize my day, keep track of appointments and, in general, tidy up my life (which needs considerable tidiness). Then, I purchased a cell phone using the same operating system and discovered that I now no longer needed to carry two devices around. I was down to one. Does the client have wi-fi?

Notes from a 21st Century “Mad” Man: How Do You Put a Value on Experience?
http://larryclayman.blogspot.com/2012/04/how-do-you-put-value-on-experience.html
Friday, April 13, 2012. How Do You Put a Value on Experience? I didn't ask how much it costs but average cost for the procedure tends to run around $2,000 per eye. One of the reasons the procedure only takes 7 minutes is that the skilled doctor has done so many of these surgeries that he/she has developed a high skill level which allows for the surgery being completed in a short period of time. We don't hold this against the doctor. On the contrary, we applaud him for his skill and efficiency. Switzerlan...

Tuesday, January 24, 2012. Are You Providing A Showroom For Your Competitors? I recently read that the large brick and mortar retailers (particularly Target) are very concerned about the practice of potential customers walking their stores to see what's new and then leave the store empty handed only to purchase the same product online from a different company. This practice of turning stores into showrooms for online retailers is of grave concern to the future of conventional retailing. 2 Always know you...

Notes from a 21st Century “Mad” Man: May 2011

Monday, May 16, 2011. The Four P's and their place in marketing nirvana. Marketing classes have always emphasized the importance of "the 4 P's" when determining how to launch a product (or a company for that matter). For those who missed class that day, the 4 P's are. 8226; Place (distribution). So let's take a quick trip through the P's as I see it. What are you hoping to add to that cost to create your profit? How important is it that your price be priced similar to the competition? If your product is ...

Tuesday, September 20, 2011. Thought Going Digital Was Easy? Take a Look at Netflix. .but you may want to cover your eyes. Netflix decided to add instant streaming to its offering. Great idea. The time had come. It had come so fast in fact that the CEO Reed Hastings was quoted as saying that the future of Netflix was in streaming. It almost sounded like the company had to keep sending out those nasty little DVDs for a while longer but they really didn't like it. So what did Mr. Hastings do? Musings on Ma...

Thursday, February 16, 2012. Why Macs Could Be the Dominant Computer in Corporate America in 5 Years. They prepped the market for the final play. The real question is what will make Mountain Lion the same! It will now share many of the same features that we have all become accustomed to using on our iPhones and iPads, namely a beautiful touch screen device that will share much of the same functionality as Apple's other devices. Want that type larger? Pinch it open. Want it smaller? We've been writing abo...
