If I died today, nobody would be able to log into my blog. I’ve suddenly realized that is an important problem that could become an urgent one in the blink of an eye. But wait. It gets worse. I own HUNDREDS of domain names, and have DOZENS of live, active websites. ...

Just when I thought I’d seen it all… I came across a website today for something called “Laughter Yoga”. My first question was, “What the heck is ‘laughter yoga’?” Turns out it’s exactly what it sounds like. People get together in a Yoga-class type setting, and they LAUGH. There’s even a “...

Yesterday (Monday, October 5, 2009) the US Federal Trade Commission rolled out a brand new rule: bloggers who endorse products must disclose any financial benefits they receive for doing so. Failure to live up to this rule could get bloggers fined up to $11,000. Per violation...

Friday in Allentown, a robber walks into a Wachovia bank branch in Allentown, PA. Intends to rob the place. Picks a 78-year old bank teller as his target. I guess he figured she would be a pushover. Boy was he wrong...

Hi Ray - just read your tweet about your Fan Page, way cool idea!! :)
For sure add the Static FBML app (which allows you to paste in your own HTML), and use multiple iterations to include your opt-in box, Welcome page, Twitter button (see http://twitbuttons.com), etc. etc. Each tab has its own unique URL so you can spli...t test and/or use one tab for non-fans and one for fans. E.g. my fan page http://facebook.com/marismith goes to the Welcome tab for non fans. See also http://facebook.com/gary or http://facebook.com/target for other ideas.
Check out http://involver.com for great Facebook Page apps too!

You might consider the sequence http://hootsuite.com > http://ping.fm > Twitter + Facebook Profile + Facebook Fan Page + LinkedIn etc. for *some* of your updates.

It’s quite a bit of work, and I’m happy to do it if you think it’s worthwhile.) Every piece of your website is a link in the sales chain. Each link ...
