Yahoo! Ad Network is #2 Right Out of the Gate →
I found the headline on this article at Adotas’ to be amusing: “Advertising.com Beats Yahoo! In Reach”.
The article refers to the November Comscore numbers for Ad Networks that has Advertising.com hitting 86% of the US internet audience, while the Yahoo! Ad Network hits 85% of the audience. So while the headline is certainly true, I’m not sure Advertising.com finishing at the top is the most...

It’s been heating up for a while in the online ad platform space, and it’s now going to get hotter with Google and Doubleclick’s merger allowed to proceed by the FTC. I expected it would be approved, so no big surprise here.

I Like The Sound of Nanosolar →
I’ve often thought solar power was one of the most promising clean energy options for many reasons, but it seems as if the advancement of the technology hasn’t moved as fast as it should or is capable. Over the last couple of years I’ve read about many promising advancements that seemed to start pushing solar forward. The latest news from a company called Nanosolar gets me excited as they’ve...

December is normally a crazy month due to the holidays, but this may be my busiest ever with the combination of that and various travel. Normally my travel is very work-based, but this month already featured a weekend trip to Laguna Beach for my best friend and coworker Brad Nelson’s wedding. It was a fantastic time with long time friends that will be a great memory to...
Yahoo! Shortcuts is Cool, But Not Perfect →
I’m going to agree with Greg, I like the Yahoo! Shortcuts plugin for Wordpress that was just released, but I think it’d get more traction if the product links were affiliate-based so that bloggers could earn commission.
Very cool plugin though, it’ll be interesting to see how widely it gets used.

Yahoo! Mail and Messenger On Flights →
The announcement that Yahoo! Mail and Yahoo! Messenger are partnering with Jet Blue to offer lightweight wifi services on flights is both extremely cool, and kind of sad at the same time for me.
Being that I’m traveling a lot now for work it becomes readily apparent when I’m in the air that it’d be nice to be able to connect to the web in order to get work done and communicate with colleagues,...
It’s beginning to feel a lot like Christmas.
Cam just met David Caruso at Webmaster World in Las Vegas.
I need to figure out how to use Tumblr to post to my main blog.
AdRoll is a Good Idea, but tough to Execute →
Techcrunch has a post up today on AdRoll, a new “social” ad network that’s been started by former Paypal and Slide co-founder Jared Kopf.
First, I think calling it a “social” ad network is grabbing onto the social buzzword a bit, but it does appear to be more social than other ad networks as it allows publishers to form their own mini-networks based on their topics or other factors.
The idea is...
I have arrived at my hotel in Palm Springs. The sun is nice in December.
I’m currently stuck in the Denver Airport on a flight delay. Traveling rules.
