Why doesn't Facebook eat LinkedIn?
March 20, 2013
A few months ago a smart gentleman from Facebook came to speak to our Sr. Management team. It was a great talk that I very much appreciated. During this time I pointedly asked him the question “why doesn’t Facebook make a play for LinkedIn?”. His answer to me was that if Facebook does something, they do it right, and it doesn’t make sense for them today. I was honestly a little surprised by his answer. I was expecting something closer to a dodge but with his answer, it’s obvious to me that the discussions are happening at Facebook.

Nike+ on my Bike
January 19, 2013
I was once a very good cyclist. Since that time I started a career and had 2 kids (with my 3rd days or hours away). Now I’m a very bad cyclist, but I still very much enjoy the sport. I recently managed to get myself out on my road bike after neglecting her for at least 2 years. She’s a very beautiful machine that’s outfitted with a very fancy computer. A fancy computer that I forget how to use it after about 4 months of neglect. Once I remember how to use it however, it’s a neat little device.

Indigo Mobile Study - Windows Phone 8
April 4, 2013
Indigo is competing directly with Amazon.ca. Not having a mobile presence is a little bit nuts in my opinion.
To start off, I’d like to take a moment to describe the market.
US smartphone market fun facts
I realize that the US market is not the same as the Canadian market, but they’re pretty close so these statistics are relevant enough for my exploration. Generally the Canadian mobile adoption is stronger so the %’s below would be slightly higher if anything. These stats were found via comScore and a few fun info-graphics I found.

Professional Ratings
February 11, 2013
If I was Linked In, I’d be focused on more on people differentiation. I’m pretty certain that there are a lot of people out there who don’t really deserve recommendations who are still getting them. In my book there are two types of people; people who I’d partner with, and people who I wouldn’t. If I wouldn’t feel comfortable giving you 50% of a business where you and I have the best skills to make it succeed, then I should probably keep looking for the right person.
I was recently speaking to a smart person who told me his view on differentiation. You’ve got your 6’s and your 9’...

The Inevitable Success of the iWatch
March 26, 2013
When the iWatch comes out I’m pretty sure I’m going to buy one. I’m sure I’ll buy one if it looks anything like the image above. This a lot more than I can say about most technology that I’m introduced to.
One of the reasons I feel that I’ll purchase the iWatch is because, In a way, I’ve actually owned one before. It was an iPod Nano with a watchband, and it was a great little product. It had some flaws such as you couldn’t always see the time there was no GPS, but I liked it.
