An anthropological introduction to YouTube

Another gem from Prof. Mike Wesch – and while it is long, I think it is well worth the watch for anyone who wants/needs to understand what is going on (through the eyes of people – not marketers) with YouTube specifically and online communities in general.

Enjoy.

This might be a bit long, and of course youtube centric – but well worth watching for anyone who wants/needs to understand Web 2.0

Enjoy.

This has been out a while – but you gotta like it. Unusual – to say the least for healthcare advertising.

Good stuff

Circuit City Part II

This story goes back to one of my favorite alltime posts about Circuit City firing 3,400 “overpaid” sales employees.

Hewitt wins Pinnacle Airlines

Delighted to see that my old company (RealLife HR) is proving of value to Hewitt. I think RealLife HR’s SAAS model and rapid implementation architecture will provide Hewitt with unmatched capability to provide superior service to mid-market employers (5k to 15k employees).

It gets really interesting when combined with some of Hewitt’s other capabilities (HighRoads and Hewitt Pharmacy Benefits).
