in Why I don’t want a Kindle on Marketing Begins At Home
Honestly, I think you're dating yourself (and the rest of us!). I'm half with you, though. Personally, I like reading a book and turning the pages, but that's because it's what I've always known... it's what I grew up with.

As for newspapers, though, that's not in my DNA. I am quite content to never touch or smell another newspaper again and instead get my news online.

This stuff is generational, and while you or I may not want a Kindle, I can see generations after us being totally warm to the idea.

Er, down in Texas they spell it "Shiner Bock" -- http://www.shiner.com/ -- The sad thing is that the Celis brewery is gone...

in New toy alert on Marketing Begins At Home
Congrats on the toy!

After our pre-purchase conversation yesterday, I found myself researching the same thing last night. It actually looks great (though I couldn't find one of those whiz-bang, online demos of it), but I kept coming across one issue: e-mail support. Near as I can tell, the Pearl (and perhaps all Blackberrys?) don't fully support IMAP. Having used Chatter on my Treo 650 for the last 18 months (and having the wonderful experience of a truly single/fully-synced inbox, regardless of what device I use to check my mail, Treo, computer, etc), I was horrified to read that the Blackberry doesn't really do IMAP.

Can you (or someone) confirm/deny this?

in Dave Says We Dont Take Podcasting Seriously on Chris Brogan
Actually, I realize there's a lot more to podcasting than business. After all, I got started doing it out of love for the technology and the medium -- and especially the message -- and it slowly morphed into business. I think you misinterpreted the message in my post. I said that PodCamp is a great thing, and if one (minor) change was made (that being the scheduling) it would be taken a LOT more seriously by the world-at-large.

As for business happening 24x7x365... that's true only to a point. The lion's share of the world sees business happening 9-5, and it's those people we need to convince of this. I'm already a convert (and have been for two years! :-).
