Last Comic Standing - Judging the Judges

Wednesday, June 27th, 2007

I watched Last Comic Standing last night and I have to say that I was easily distracted. I don’t know if it was due to the quality of the contestants or the lack of appeal of the judges. While using former contestants as judges might have seemed like a good ...

On the Lot – Just not On the TV!

Wednesday, June 27th, 2007

I have said it before and I am not surprised to have to say it again… Considering who is behind this program, I am shocked to see how many broadcasting problems this show has. I was watching it again last night and during the premier of one of the contestants, Hilary ...

Hell’s Kitchen – A taste for disaster

Tuesday, June 26th, 2007

Watching Hell’s Kitchen last night I couldn’t help but wonder if the producers of this show were setting up Chef Ramsay to fail? I mean come off of it man – how could the brain trust behind this show choose candidate chefs without verifying that these people actually have a ...

Million Dollar Wiki – Will this guy make it?

Friday, June 22nd, 2007

Do you remember about a year ago or so where this guy got the bright idea to sell each pixel of his web advertising space for a buck per pixel? The thought was that if he could get that $1 per pixel he would make his money in short order ...

Last Comic Standing – 2007

Thursday, June 14th, 2007

I caught the premiere of Last Comic Standing this evening and for a guy who usually has a TV going about 18 hours a day, I had no idea that there was going to be a new season let alone it was starting tonight. They toured 4 cities this evening and ...

Hell’s Kitchen – Who’s cooking tonight?

Tuesday, June 12th, 2007

The second installment of Hell’s Kitchen was on last night and as usual, it was another interesting show. Chef Ramsay was in fine form once again as he deals with this season’s crop of cooks. I can’t really call them chefs yet as their lack of coordination flies in the ...

SMX - Day 2 Recap – Seattle

Tuesday, June 5th, 2007

This entry is a little late as I had a bunch of stuff to catch up on upon returning from this conference. Day 2 was pretty much the same as Day 1, lots of good food and some quality sessions. While I held out hope that this day was going ...

SMX - Day 1 Recap - Seattle

Tuesday, June 5th, 2007

Day 1 found me attending the You & A with Matt Cutts. While there was not anything too revealing during this session, it was nice to hear the man speak so passionately about the company he works for. Seems like a nice guy and has a decent sense of humour. I ...

SMX - Day 1 - Seattle

Monday, June 4th, 2007

Well I am about to head down to the SMX conference and I am looking forward to some of the meetings. Last night was the registration - networking party thrown by MS. The food was good and the drinks were flowing. I was 2 digits off of winning an Xbox ...

Traveling Man - Search Marketing Expo

Monday, June 4th, 2007

Well I made it to Seattle and I am all checked into my hotel. It is a fairly nice room for the price and it is close enough to the convention center for me to walk there. I am about to go to the SMX Bash Networking Reception & Early ...
