Recently I was in London for Seedcamp and ad-tech on behalf of Lookery. One of the challenges of traveling to Europe in this Crackberry/iPhone day and age are the INSANE data roaming charges that mobile co’s like ATT Wireless like to charge. The standard rate is 2c per KB or $20/MB. Egads! For perspective, my [...]SHARETHIS.addEntry({ title: "Travel Hack: One way to get free wifi", url...

As the online display ad business continues to focus more and more on the idea of user targeting (the idea of targeting the user instead of targeting the site or the context of the page), there is a growing interest and some potential concern around how we’re going to target users. With some of the [...]SHARETHIS.addEntry({ title: "The Fallacy & Conundrum of User Influenced Ad Models", url: "http...

I’ve been meaning to write about my friend Dave Schappell’s startup TeachStreet since it launched back in April. With TeachStreet’s launch into it’s second market - Portland today - now seems like the perfect time. First a little background - I met Dave last year at Seattle Ignite summer 2007. I was introduced by now TeachStreet [...]SHARETHIS.addEntry({ title: "A Little Love for TeachStreet...

The recent WSJ article on Google’s difficulties monetizing YouTube has caught a lot of attention with the stat that Google can only sell ads around 4% of the videos on the site (due to copyright concerns). With roughly a billion videos viewed a day that leaves a lot of unmonetized traffic. At the same time as [...]SHARETHIS.addEntry({ title: "Calling BS on Wall Street’s YouTube Revenue Estimates...

I totally expected Floyd Landis to lose his anti-doping appeal to the Court for the Arbitration of Sport, but not for the reasons most of you would likely expect. I am biased to think Landis didn’t use testosterone but from a legal jurispudence perspective that’s irrelevant.

Comscore (via Allen Stern at CenterNetwork) reports that 11.5 billion videos were watched online in March in the U.S. 11.5 billion sounds like an awfully big number. But it’s not. At least not in terms of web scale. Comscore itself estimates that total page views online are estimated in the trillions per month. Heck even [...]SHARETHIS.addEntry({ title: "Online Video - Not Here Yet - How a...

I heard about the Genographic Project while watching a documentary on some 4,000 year old European mummies found in Eastern China. The Genographic Project is tracing the lineage and migration of humanity using mitochondrial DNA. To a geek like me this is some very cool stuff. They have a cool website that is well worth [...]SHARETHIS.addEntry({ title: "Cool Link: The Genographic Project - An...
