Tests & checks vs. profiling

Thursday, March 26th, 2009

standardized tests can be useful- but, in my experience, should be compounded with profiling

Crisis & conflict management

Wednesday, March 25th, 2009

along my career, as well as in other activities before, I always enjoyed negotiating.

often, I have been called in by partners after they had already built a contract-based relationship: that wasn’t working as planned

this post is long and without a chapter-by-chapter division: because it is a short summary of what I learned to do, and what to avoid

Gated communities

Monday, March 23rd, 2009

My American friends will certainly assume that I am referring to locations like, say, those towns that allow only residents above 50 years of age.

And this is a partially correct assumption.

Without knowing, you too belong to probably more than one “gated community”.

Of insects & startups

Friday, March 20th, 2009

The focus is startups- but you can (as I did in the pasts) use the same principles in other activities, from projects to business development.

Google & XXI Century privacy

Thursday, March 5th, 2009

It is about time. People are starting to realize that what you post online, stays online. But both the “authors” and their “readers” are trying to shift the blame on search engines like Google. Personally- I agree with Google. Completely.

social networking as a social experience: embedding new technologies in real life

Thursday, March 5th, 2009

Social networking nowadays is considered just a synonym for MySpace, Facebook, Twitter, etc.

And the Wikipedia link shown above is a classical example: you search for social networking, and you get social network service.

But it started before. And it is not limited to that.

During the Summer of 2009 I will start to release part of my research (few hundred pages, and few thousand pages of supporting references, links, articles, etc), on “cross-media convergence” in business
