Is it just me, or are newspapers becoming kind of quaint? I was on the bus this morning looking over at the headline on one of those free dailies they hand out in subways. It said “Coup in Honduras!” I was like, well no shit. I found out about this while it was actually happening. [...]
Mass media is merging. Personal media is splintering. Why?
Watch the video below before you read this. Or don’t, whatever. At least look here. First of all, disclosure: A lot of people find this meme funny. Despite its kind of offensive nature, I think I’m becoming one of them, and so are a lot of people (look at the Youtube comments). My question is [...]

I don’t think people actually want to be “social media experts.” I think Twitter users see the success of people who are working independently online, they see that they’re doing social media work (because that’s what’s hot and working right now), and they go, “I can do this, too.” And some of them can.

Chris, Hugh and I were at Book Expo America over the weekend. While we were there, we saw the first copies of our book in actual real life. It was pretty awesome.
