Santa left me a Logitech Harmony One Remote for Christmas. After about an hour I had my entire entertainment system setup and tuned on it. the "help" feature was a big selling point for me to assist my Wife when I was not home.
Then I wanted wanted to get fancy and setup icons for my favorite channels. After a little research, I found an amazing and free Web site for Harmony One Icons. Great work! I setup some of my favorites (DisneyHD for Joey, HBOHD SciFiHD Paladium CMT for me, and Vh1 for my Wife.

Online Marketing Course For College Credit
I have been very busy developing an online marketing course that will be used by several Universities for College credit. This will be a video course. Once available, I will start promoting it. For the record, I did have to wear make up during the shoot. I was not a fan...
Jay Berkowitz and the Team at Ten Golden Rules is also very involved in this project. It is always great to collaborate with Jay!
I am working on my Pubcon 2008 summary. I just need to wrap up my presentations for this course first.

I Like Ike! Hurricane Coming Could Be Great For Florida Economy
I grew up in the garbage industry, most people do not realize the far reaching affects a nasty hurricane has on the local economy. The number of new jobs (roofers, clean up, home repairs, food, gas, cable, electricians, new construction, etc) created is great for pumping dollars back in the economy! Lets not forget getting a few days off work.

Baby Joey's First Fish
While I always expected my son's first fish to be a saltwater fish, it turned out to be a trout. We just returned from a secluded week in the North Carolina mountains. The weather was perfect and DSL worked well enough for me to keep up with my work. I do have a few interested marketing comments about the area up there, but this post is for my son's first fish. I held the rod and he reeled it in completely on his own!

Yahoo Says Higher Gas Prices Mean More Sales Online
Yahoo did a great blog post predicting an online boon to the rising gas prices: http://www.ysmblog.com/blog/2008/07/01/high-gas-prices/.
There are days that I will not drive to certain restaurants anymore because I feel it is wasting gas if they are too far away. I happen to live very close to a mall, but I totally agree with Yahoo. If a can save a trip to a specialty store, it makes sense to buy online. The only caveat to their prediction is increasing shipping costs due to the increasing fuel costs.
Online marketing should be very strong for the 2008 holiday season regardless of high fuel costs. Fueling the fire of high fuel costs (intended pun) may be a nice way for SEOs and SEMs to more easily sell their services this year!

Panama: Copa Airlines, Land Deals, and More!
I just got back from a few days in Panama. The trip was a nice blend of vacation and work. I spent a 1/2 day at Copa Airlines headquarters. They have an amazing facility with a great Web marketing staff. I had the pleasure of consulting for them on the natural and paid strategies for search. If things go well, there will be more trips from Miami to Panama in the near future so I can do some SEM training down there.
I also had time to visit the property in Colon, Panama that I am promoting with my compradre, Mark Livingway. The land is pristine and sits on the Caribbean coast. It hard to explain the natural unspoiled beauty. For more information visit http://www.panama-land-for-sale.com or my Panama Blog http://panamalandforsale.blogspot.com/

Soapnet.com WOW Celebrity User Generated Content
I am sitting on the couch working while my Wife is watching the Daytime Emmy Awards. I hear the announcer say that each table has Video cameras for the celebrities to use and all the content will be uploaded to Soapnet.com. That is AWESOME content! I am really impressed with the hooks here: user generated content, famous user generated content, appeal to see insider info, possibilities to feel like you were there.
This is the convergence of Social Media and TV. I am not a fan of Daytime TV (unless SciFi HD channel is running a Stargate marathon), but I will have to check out how soapnet.com uses these videos.
