November 17, 2008

I am a firm believer that Customer Service and public discussions on the web will be an alternate channel similar to phone, email, or chat.  At the same time I was not surprised to learn that the Consumerist on Friday announced that their parent company, Gawker Media, was putting the web property up for sale.  Recently Get Satisfaction started a pay program to provide more control to companies.  Will websites such as these ever be a profitable place?  Are they even needed with all the blogs and other website out there?

The WSJ reports that the Republicans will have press events in Denver during the Democratic Convention. They even say that the Republicans have found a loophole that allows them access to the floor of the convention. This is not cool.  

Excellent Tech !

I was over at Fred Wilson’s blog and saw something interesting I hadn’t thought of as an alternative to managing an email server. For background see yesterday’s post.

Right now we’re using Google Groups to send email to people who want to subscribe, but even that depends on us having a working mail server for us to send mail to from a script.

“If you are a blogger, I think it is not wise to identify yourself as a blogger! You should at least identify yourself by something specific in your blogging character. My niche is diary, journal, opinion, travels, freelance and so on. In my niche there is not a lot to specify yourself in, what I think can be your blogging identity then is your voice, your blogging voice. My blogging voice or my writer’s voice is: hilarious, depressive, opinionated, controversial, genuine, unashamed… I think this is something which attracts my readers.!” by Jody Donnelly

I was at the computer this Morning when an on air employee  at Fox 2 Detroit made a plea for $28,000 to send the kids to Washington DC to sing at the event confirming Barak Obama’s presidency ! Now I think as opposed to promoting the ” The Disease of the Day !”  in health works which seems to be 60% of their content !  How about the Station that we support  dig’s into their own Pockets and give the kids the $28,000.00 there are a lot of high paid employees at Fox 2 !  Then they get one of the Local Sports teams to give them a free ride in their Jet !  This is a contrubution to the MENTAL HEALTH of Schools Systems !  Television was founded as a Public Service how about responding to your Public !

The Holocaust
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

“Selection” on the Judenrampe, Auschwitz, May/June 1944. To be sent to the right meant slave labor; to the left, the gas chambers. This image shows the arrival of Hungarian Jews from Carpatho-Ruthenia, many of them from the Berehov ghetto. It was taken by Ernst Hofmann or Bernhard Walter of the SS. Courtesy of Yad Vashem.[1]

“Holocaust” and “Shoah” redirect here. For other uses, see Holocaust (disambiguation) and Shoah (disambiguation).
The Holocaust (from the Greek ?????????? (holókauston): holos, “completely” and kaustos, “burnt”), also known as (Ha)-Shoah (Hebrew: ?????), Churben (Yiddish: ?????) was the genocide of approximately six million European Jews during World War II, as part of a program of deliberate extermination planned and executed in Nazi Germany under Adolf Hitler.[2]
Other groups were also persecuted and killed, including the Roma; Soviet civilians, Soviet prisoners of war; ethnic Poles; the disabled; gay men; and political and religious opponents.[3] Most scholars, however, define the Holocaust as a genocide of European Jewry alone,[4] or what the Nazis called the “Final Solution of the Jewish Question.” Taking into account all the victims of Nazi persecution, the total number of victims would be between nine and 11 million.[5]
The persecution and genocide were accomplished in stages. Legislation to remove the Jews from civil society was enacted years before the outbreak of World War II. Concentration camps were established in which inmates were used as slave labour until they died of exhaustion or disease. Where the Third Reich conquered new territory in eastern Europe, specialized units called Einsatzgruppen murdered Jews and political opponents in mass shootings. Jews and Roma were crammed into ghettos before b

A few months ago, we began an experiment. We offered a free book to anyone who agreed to post a 200-word review on their blog. We started with The Faith of Barack Obama by Stephen Mansfield. We had almost 200 people request books and almost 70% of them posted book reviews.”

I’ll be there, with all the cool people.

It’s not camping, it’s not camp fires and s’mores (hmm there’s an idea), it’s not (just) geeks and nerds (though there are some there). it’s about blogging and social media, it’s about fun, it’s about networking, it’s about learning, it’s about teaching, it’s about sharing.
