Work at Home and Pass Gas On Earth Day April 22

Taxing eBay Part Deux
Several folks argued that just because their little eBay hobby generated a little cash, that didn’t make it a full blown business. It seems they consider the income from their little hobby to be financial manna from Heaven and thereby not taxable by earthly tax collectors. I’ve always been amused by folks who try to impress me with talk about their “little side business” but when the subject turns to taxes they suddenly refer to it as “my little hobby.”

Before You Cut Take A Good Look Around
True leaders, the ones that succeed consistently, are fully vested in and familiar with the people they work with. In the worst of times these are the folks that can rally the troops and make a real difference.

Sexual Jokes, Innuendos and Banter: A Kind of Workplace Bullying?
Got an employee who’s funnier than Saturday Night Live? Be careful; as funny as some folks find raunchy humor, it has an edge that can cut out some of the enjoyment at work – even for those who are engaging in it.

Social Media Marketing…The Challenge of Herding Cats
Social media marketing, communications. Gawd it sounds like soooo much fun...so interesting...so challenging...so mano y mano! Too bad everyone thinks of it as just another marketing/advertising tool to push ideas, products at folks. That isn't what social media communications is all about. It's about the customer. So start with the one you've got. Work with him/her. Make them happy...very happy. Help them be your advocates, your promoters. They'll tell a few folks how good your company, products, services are and in "almost" no time word will spread round the globe. Get out there. Get your hands dirty. You can't herd cats. You can't herd consumers. Get in the saddle with the attitude you can and they'll turn on you. Show they why your product/service is so good. Show them how to install, troubleshoot, use it. Then ..

On The Road, Staying in Touch for Business, Pleasure
Sure the next couple of months are going to be hectic what with the holidays, Storage Visions, CES, the holidays. It's no wonder that the gift everyone expects to get in their stocking is portable. We just don't seem to have enough of being in touch with all of the bad news and folks we don't want to see. Already we see folks with a couple of smartphones, notebook, tablet, more tucked in their backpacks. The demand for devices and content just keeps growing. As long as it's portable though we'll just ride on!

WOM…It’s An Art, It’s Science, It’s Theirs
If you went to/read about SXSW (check Wikipedia) you saw that folks were doing everything for word of mouth (WOM) buzz. They'll do it all the time, every time. Big secret though? Those folks don't have one iota of control over WOM! Nope that belongs to the people we're feeding the messages to. You know "them." Problem is they can turn on you in a heartbeat and gawd it ain't pretty. When that happens it's damage control and you try to save the vital parts...that's when you call the PR folks to blame...not us, them! It can be "managed if you know how to prepare, what to do, when to do it...and you have blind faith!!!!

Artists, Music, Audiences Change Labels Find it Tough
eems like half the shows on TV are about rising musicians/singers. But ask the MPAA (music folks) and their industry is breathing its last chest rattling breath. Quit humming around the house. Stop listeing to music on your iPhone, iPod, car/home radio because you're only prolonging the inevitable. How dumb can folks think you are because player sales -- all types -- are up like gangbusters. Pandora and other services are rolling in money. Our problem Ensure the musicians get their fair share. The MPA? Labels? Sorry folks those days are gone...you're right!!!!

Cyberworld …Guess We’ll Have to Get Secure with Insecurity
Every time you turn around there's a new report about someone losing a bunch of folks personal data or hackers defacing your stuff or a new, better online bait-and-switch. Cybercriminals are making impressive gains. At least when you hear folks talk at the two leading security conferences in Las Vegas - DefCon and Black Hat. - you wonder if CyberInnocence will ever exist...again It used to be pale folks with bad hair and bad skin attending to learn the latest "tricks" of the trade. This year it looked like a corporate/governmental recruiting activity with the security folks saying what they were doing -- needed to do to protect organizational/individual information and the hackers/hacktivists "voicing" their concern over privacy invasion and freedom of the Internet. All we have to d
