  • Loren Feldman Demonstrates Artistic Handiwork But is Not Racist

    Alot has been said recently of the cyclone that has begun to swirl around Loren Feldman. Loren is, and continues to be, my friend first and foremost. Though I know this will be completely offensive to some in the blogosphere, many of whom I respect and see as colleagues, it has to be said. Artwork…

  • Loren Feldman Debacle Demonstrates Ignorance Lives

    By now, many of you have heard about the failed attempt at humor by video blogger Loren Feldman. In the past, I’ve been pleased to call Loren my friend. He is funny, and very New York – two combos that I like. People like Loren often make me miss NYC, where people are real. However,…

  • Consolidation in the Blogosphere – Part II

    Yesterday, I posted a video that suggested that perhaps a little consolidation needs to happen in the blogosphere. I was not the first. At the time of that recording, it had slipped my mind that Mike Arrington predicted a roll-up of blogs back in March. Regardless, the issue has sparked a very interesting discussion around…

  • Consolidation in the Blogosphere

    I think we need to see a consolidation of content and advertising. Everyone’s competing with each other because they don’t know how to give up their individual voice. What happens is we get a clamor for top Techmeme billing. Instead, I’d like to see more federations of blogs, where content producers work hand in hand…

  • What's Your Legacy?

    Back in December, the blogging world was struck dumb when Marc Orchant passed away suddenly due to a heart attack. I don’t want to rehash all the details as you can find them elsewhere. Sufficed to say, many tears were shed over his passing. Time heals all wounds, right? No, not quite. Today, GigaOm announced…

  • Cloud Computing Does Not Spell the End for Common Sense I.T. Management

    Sometimes I think I might be the only one who retains commons sense. Really. At least in the area of I.T. Management. Though we had our share of growing pains at b5media, the knowledge gained from working in an enterprise environment at Northrop Grumman was only accentuated by my tenure as the Director of Technology…

  • Slipstream Intros, Outros and Other Multimedia Into Talkshoe Calls

    So, if you’ve noticed, I’m kind of a perfectionist about podcasts I do. It was one of my downfalls when I did the Suicide Fan sports show awhile ago. I wasted so much time getting details right that I finally gave up as it wasn’t my full time job and I ended up spending hours…

  • Confirmed: Livingston Communications Acquired by Social Media Group

    There’s been a few rumors floating around the past few days and over the weekend. We can confirm that Livingston Communications, a boutique social PR firm based in the DC-area and owned by Geoff Livingston (also my cohost on The District of Corruption), has been acquired by Toronto-based Social Media Group headed by rockstar CEO…

  • The Aaron Brazell Show: Episode 2: The Quest for Email Ninjahood

    Fun show tonight. Jared Goralnick, the CEO of AwayFind joins guest co-host Jimmy Gardner, joined us to talk about email management and productivity much like I’ve been talking about in my Email Ninjahood series. Later in the show, we enjoyed an open line surrounding a segment I’ve heard over at Ron Smith’s WBAL show occasionally.…
