Altucher: College is "Abhorrent"
I love my friend James Altucher dearly -- and not just because his hair makes mine look half-decent, nor because he pitched in and helped last week at the Money:Tech conference -- and his column in yesterday's FT is another reason why. Blunt, smart, contrarian, empirical and irreligious, those are James's calling cards.

The low spark of high tech marketing
Today, many tech companies enjoy a reputation, deservedly so, for being on the cutting edge. Faced with a cutthroat market, they excel at inventing and rolling out new technologies and products. Yet when it comes to marketing, they take a decidedly low-tech approach.

Privacy, Investing Alpha, and the CEO's Mother-in-Law
Much of investing is a search for hard-to-get data that can give you an edge, or alpha. That quest for alpha via better data is one of the themes of my Money:Tech 2008 conference, and it is the topic of an unusual and fascinating article in Wednesday's Wall Street Journal.

Africa at DEMO ‘08
I’ve been sitting on this little nugget of information for the last month, but am happy to finally announce that I’ll be going to the DEMO ‘08 conference in January.

New research released at the We Media Miami conference finds that most Americans believe small business, science and tech leaders will lead the U.S. to a better future – not the government, big business or the news media.

Why you have to love Tech Stocks!
As someone who spent a lot of time as a Financial Planner after the Tech Bubble in the late 90’s, it is not easy to say you have to love Tech stocks. Why? Because, the Tech market of the late 90’s became the poster child of what not to do when investing. It became a cliché for anyone who taught people how to diversify and be a balanced investor.

HR Technology Conference- Closing Thoughts
Last Friday I was able to participate in the final day of the HR Technology Conference in Chicago. I've shared some of my thoughts on the benefits of attending the conference from the perspective of networking and today I'd like to share some ideas about the sessions I was able to attend and some general thoughts on the conference:

Price is what you pay. Value is what you get.
I recently had the pleasure of attending and speaking at the 6th CIPS Australasia Annual Conference for the procurement profession.

A key message I gleaned from the conference was Value Management rather than the narrow band width of Cost Management.
