As a co-founder of a new venture, www.soshopping.com, I helped start a revolution today. Soft launch was at 12 pm pst. I guess this means I'm going to have to change my profile... on February 15

Congrats to Dick Costolo, who is the new CEO of Twitter. Saw him at Vator Splash last week. on October 04

I'm really looking forward to the iPad. I can't wait to start playing with all those cool little apps I keep hearing about, but don't use because I don't have an iphone. on April 01

I heard about an iphone app that helps you find your car in a parking garage. I hope the ipad will support the same types of apps, could have really used that today at the LA Convention Center. 2 huge lots mixed with confused security and my own lapse in direction cost me time. on March 31

Always reward those who go above and beyond. Never forget that at the end of the day, everyone wants recognition. A pat on the back is good, but nothing says "I appreciate you" more than some $$ flow in their direction. Share the love! on March 30

Most people hate Mondays and love Fridays. We workaholics are just the opposite. Can't wait to get the week started. In the book "rework" they say workaholics can upset balance by outperforming everyone. Maybe so, but when you need something done who would you rather go to? on March 29

Everyone has the same compass and north is north for everyone. It is a race and getting there first is difficult. The trick is to distinguish yourself and that you can only do through rapid execution and penetration in a market. on March 26

Just voted for Zazum in the Vator splash competition. Their tagline see love buy pulled me in. I like their concept. on March 25

Successful people that I've known always seem to be able to keep a focus that is like a kung fu death grip. They balance this with the wisdom to know the precise moment when to let go. on March 25

I read somewhere, probably on vator, that social networking is a process, not a destination. It's now a mantra of mine. on March 24

Been thinking about how I only use my cellphone to make calls. Makes me feel old school. I need to get into the culture. If only I could invent an iphone app that creates other iphone apps. Chaching! on March 23

Optimism is infectious. If healthcare reform injects optimism into people's lives, that will spill over into the economy. When people feel better, they spend more and I'm all for that. Otherwise, I have very little use for politics. on March 22

Standing in line at the Post office to mail out something personal. It makes me realize just how different the pace between online and offline is. I find inspiration in that gap. The so-called new economy from 10 years ago has finally arrived. on March 19

If there is a new trend emerging online, it is happening for a good reason and isn't just a fad. Ignore these trends at your peril. Be an early adopter and there's gold in them there hills! Vator is incredibly useful for following trends. I remember the first twitter piece. on March 18

One tip to share from the book "Rework" is to look for ancillary opportunities whenever you solve a problem. The benefit of creating your own platform as opposed to using an out of the box solution is that these opportunities arise more often. We've taken full advantage of that on March 17

Found a cool book on the desk of one of our programmers, "Rework" by Jason Fried & David Hansson. It's funny. I love our team and one way you know you have great people is if they are fully immersed in the culture. They read books about it in their spare time, when they can. on March 16

Cool, got my company updates turned on, so here we go. Let me start by saying I'm a big fan of this platform, Vator, it really helps you keep your finger on the pulse. So thanks to Bambi and the team for making it happen. on March 16
