Survival of the Twittest

So they say Twitter can lead to business.  Anyone who leaps into Twitter hoping to market by blasting folks with the awesomeness of their junk is in for a surprise — whatever those smarmy marketing articles told you, it’s not true.

What Twitter is about building relationships. It’s like being in a club [...]

Feel the Teal: Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month

Did you know that today is Feel Teal Friday and that President Obama declared September Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month?

I bet you didn’t, and to be honest, until yesterday, I didn’t either. Ovarian cancer, unlike its pink cousin, breast cancer, is way down on most of our radars as familiar diseases to look out for. While is [...]

I Learned a New Word for Freedom

From Wikipedia:

Azadi (Persian: ) means “freedom, liberty” in Persian, the official and national language of Iran. This Persian word is also borrowed by Kurdish, Urdu, Pashto and Hindi languages.

The past few weeks  I have, like everyone else, been riveted by the news from Iran, at least until Michael Jackson’s demise took precedence for so many in [...]

Submit Your Three Wolf Moon Haiku

I am just as enamored as everyone else over the internet t-shirt sensation known as Three Wolf Moon T-Shirt.  The effect this t-shirt is having on people around the world is truly inspiring. (You can buy it here.)

In that spirit, I want to invite  you to a share *your* own three-wolf-moon inspiration, and what better way [...]

A New Year – Herd Around Here

Playing a bit of catch-up here, I had all the best intentions of starting the New Year off with a boom-bang post about resolutions and how they, well, suck. And why. And insights and stuff.

First, though, I should say that up till now we’ve always blogged here as a company, but this year I, that is, [...]

Obama – Not Just a City in Japan

Ok, geography buffs, what city in Japan shares a name with a US presidential candidate? If you said Ronpouru (Ron Paul) you’d be wrong.

But the city of Obama in Fukui Prefecture has been following the race closely and rooting for Barack Obama and the notoriety that would come to the city, should their unwitting namesake be [...]

Earth Hour Demonstrates Effectiveness in Tel-Aviv

Last week’s Earth Hour, when we were asked to turn off lights for a full hour, didn’t look like much where we were in L.A., but the effect in Tel-Aviv was noticeable:

Not only that, but according to Haaretz:

Vats of oil used to fry Tel Avivians’ lunchtime falafels and chips were brought on Thursday to Rabin Square, [...]

Why We Love SmallDog

We admit it — we’re Mac-heads. And one of our favorite resources is SmallDog.com. Not only are they knowledgable and authorized Apple dealers, but you’ve got to love a company whose employees bring their dogs to work, regardless of size, *and* you get small (toy) dogs in every order they ship out.

Beyond all that likeability, though, [...]

Eco-Fun for Earth Day

Earth Day is around the corner (April 22) and we’ll be posting some of our favorite eco-friendly links and resources throughout the month, called, respectively, Green Links and Eco-Reco!

Since Ben & Jerry is foremost in our mind right now because of their free ice cream give-away (Tuesday, April 17!!!) we’re going to share their “Guster Getaway” [...]

So Not A Nice Jewish Boy

Israel has recalled its ambassador to El Salvador after he was found drunk and naked apart from bondage gear.
Reports say he was able to identify himself to police only after a rubber ball had been removed from his mouth.

Full story here

We think he deserves one of these. And a spanking.

Props to JewSchool.
