The digital age may create customer service ” Again !” I personally have found in the last year, with the exception of Walgreen’s ,Apple stores ,and Walmart the Brick and Mortar Stores do not give

customer service anymore !   One problem on the street is lack of product knowledge ! Now when online , many firms have the voice mail jail approach !  I will wait but after pushing button’s I would like and answer not a newbie reading me the answer from a screen especially in the world of Geekry ! I buy all my books from Amazon since their web site is informative and navigable, going to a bookstore is a rough ! I recently had to call Comcast regarding the switch to Digital TV it was a pleasant experience ! I think with the launching of Comcast Cares-Customer Service at Comcast is now becoming Digitally Correct ! I don’t call AT&T any more I go to one of their Franchise Stores, since their Customer Service is like shaking hands with an empty glove ! Recently Naomi and I both both got the New LG View Cell Phone excellent piece of Tech store gave us a nice walk through ! I am a user of Adaptive Blue’s Product Glue !  Alex and Frazer are great and this firm is going to eventually rule the word of Browser Add Ons  http://www.adaptiveblue.com/

Making Something From Nothing

This may be on of the best post’s of the new year ! From Mr Fred Wilson

“That’s a fundamental difference and we cannot ever lose sight of this fact. Nothing costs nothing. We don’t have to pay for our ideas, imagination, and hard work we put into turning nothing into something. Well to be exact, the entrepreneur doesn’t have to pay for any of those things. The VC does pay for those things and gets a piece of the ride from nothing to something as a result.!”  January 1, 2009  Fred Wilson

Add to it this look up article from Dave Winer on helping friend feed http://www.scripting.com/

In one of my reblogs I added  some thoughts  regarding giving free help to Friendfeed Mr Wilson says it better nothing cost’s nothing !  Me below !

“Or better yet have the Executives at Friend Feed follow the folks at Adaptive Blue these people have developed an application for all of us and they will succeed. http://www.adaptiveblue.com/!”  Msandler
