Social Media Optimization and a T-Bone Steak
A study released last week by The E-Tailing Group has found that a surprising amount of online shoppers not only rely on customer reviews, but use them more so than traditional modes of product information such as retailers, sales associates, advertising, etc. I’ll link you to the article at the end, but what it basically [...]
The Karma Police Would Like To Have a Word With You
So Radiohead’s new release “In Rainbows” is apparently going to revolutionize the way music is distributed, the way bands make money, what record companies can really do to save themselves from torrent sites, blah, blah, blah, but a huge issue that has arisen since the release is how fans are reacting to the download provided. [...]
Another Big Thanks
So after everyone got their big, fat $100 rebate on all those free iPhones, we decided that our valued employees needed a little break from the hum-drum work day. So, sticking with the trend of pulling ridiculous feats of employee appreciation out of our asses, we got post-season Phillies tickets for everyone in the office. [...]
The Name Game

The prolific blogosphere and sites like YouTube, Digg, myspace, Wikipedia and other social media sources have [...]
Looking for Falkor and Finding Much More
The other night my girlfriend and I, in casual conversation, came upon the topic of The Never Ending Story. Ok. So chit chat doesn’t usually tread upon the dark and misty paths of 80’s fantasy flicks, but our cat was looking just like that pearly dog/dragon that befriends Atreyu and for the life of me, [...]
Fisticuffs of Fury
God is in a generous mood this week. Along with speaking to Paris Hilton and telling her to do something with her life other than driving drunk and making low quality porn, He gave the Weblinc Bowling Team a second chance to win the Philadelphia Ad/Web Agency Bowling League. The Fisticuffs, led by award winning [...]
