For the last 5 days I’ve been hanging out with some really cool marketers, internet entrepreneurs, and some good friends over at Yanik Silver’s Underground 6 Event here in National Harbor, MD. Apparently, National Harbor is only 2 years old and kinda like a new haven convention center town, full of in and outer’s each and every night. Needless to say… very cool place.
So when I booked my plane ticket two months ago for this event, I didn’t realize that I had booked it for Dulles airport. Turns out, Dulles is about an hour away from the Gaylor Convention Center. I tend to do that sometimes, just book a flight and not really worry about how far it is. I’ve done that on many occasions especially in California. Try it sometime, it’s nice to drive around and see the town.
I just got an email from Owen Frager about this short movie called Lemonade. It’s about “being fired.”
Here’s a comment that Abraham Anaya said about the film…
“This shows that having just a “job” doesn’t take us anywhere. We have blended or we are used to, as a society, that the idea of having a job in corporate America will take us somewhere. That the main purpose of going to college is to find a “good job.” I think that is not true. As a soon-to-be graduate senior, taking my last semester, at university level, I have found out, during these 5 years and a half, what I will like to do in my life. Not to find a “good job” but what I really love to do and that pays me well.”
this is a pretty cool and inspiring video I just came across. Makes you think about the simple mundane things in life that with a little “thinking” can be fun, exciting, and mind-blowing (in a way).
So I got my new Macbook Pro a couple of weeks ago and I have yet to setup my add-on’s for Firefox. I’ve been using Safari because it’s so clean but it doesn’t have the awesome plugins that firefox does.
Anyhow, so I’m going through the firefox add-on’s section and noticing huge amounts of traffic and weekly downloads for these add-on’s.
I got started back in 2002 with zero marketing skills or understanding about business. I accidentally created an internet business from my college apartment in Tallahassee, FL. Built it up, sold it, but still had no knowledge of marketing. Went on a journey for discovering and learning "true" hardcore marketing principles. Over the years, built, developed, sold many internet businesses. Check out my bio for more info.
