Business Technology : Most Corporate Blogs Are Unimaginative Failures

Many businesses have launched corporate blogs in an effort to better communicate with customers and capture a little Web-2.0 mojo. But Huffington Post they aint: Not only are these corporate blogs boring as paint, but the businesses behind admit they dont have much value.A new study by Forrester Research reviewed 90 blogs run by business

Sometimes the ‘community’ is uncomfortable posting. Within its niche Indium’s Dr. Lasky’s Blog is a highly successful corporate blog. Although Dr. Lasky does not receive a lot of comments he gets…

Vitamin Features » Working with web developers in India: why, whom, and how

Something that you dont often see a lot written about in new media is the strong trend by startups to outsource a lot of their work. Digg for example was originally designed by Kevin Rose outsourcing the job on elance, and sites such as Slideshare [and] illumobile.com have gone down a similar path.

The next two bits of advice for selecting a firm to work with are slightly counter-intuitive. They both stem from the fact that the Indian culture of business places tremendous emphasis on preserving the appearance of harmony. Indians are…

GOP hypocrisy on G.I. Bill reaches new depths

After fighting the G.I. Bill expansion, both Bush and McCain take credit for its passage. Bush praised five senators this morning for their leadership. One (McCain) fought against the bill and then didn’t bother to vote on it. Two (Graham and Burr) fought against the bill and voted against it. Chuck Hagel, an original sponsor, wasn’t mentioned.

U.S. vs. Canada; Who’s wealthier and has more sex?

The numbers are in. Compared to the U.S., we work less, live longer, enjoy better health and have more sex. And get this: now we’re wealthier too.

The wealth numbers, in particular, are shocking. As of 2005, the median family in Canada was worth US$122,600, according to Statistics Canada, while the U.S. Federal Reserve pegged the median American family at US$93,100 in 2004. Those figures,…

Al Giordano: Missing: The Field’s DNC Convention Credential

Two weeks ago, The Field — reporting on the US presidential election — moved to a new location:
http://narconews.com/thefield
It’s been quite the ride. The former host, on June 11, censored us, then disappeared six months of archives from public view, then re-routed the site to the wrong forwarding address.

Just two weeks old, the new and improved The Field now has, according to Technorati, 84 incoming links from other blogs (added to the 2,424 incoming already into Narco News, and another 892 incoming to The Narcosphere section of the same…

Nevada Ron Paul Patriots Play Politics….and WIN!

Reports have started coming in regarding the alternate? Nevada State Convention made up of Ron Paul patriots playing within the rules legally to elect delegates to the Republican National Convention.

Thus, by definition, a recess can never be used to close a meeting. Under RONR, there are two types of recess: (1) a privileged motion to recess, requiring a majority vote, or (2) a unilateral recess being declared by the chair if…

Obama is a Muslim,

Some bloke named Andy Martin has been named as the source of the now viral “Obama is a Muslim,” email that has been passed around the net for months. The Washington Post has the story.
What a scumbag

Allen scanned his postings on Free Republic, she noticed that Beckwith repeated several phrases that also surface in the e-mail. Beckwith called Obama “an apostate Muslim, educated in madrassas.” And when Beckwith later repudiated…

The Real Bill Clinton & John McCain’s Free Ride

It is incredibly disappointed to learn about published reports that supporters of Pres. Clinton is still so mad at Sen. Obama that he suggests Obama can “kiss his a**”. Meanwhile McCain continues to make odd comments and his staff/surogates are crossing a serious line — with little attention from the media. READ this article.

Your diary both here and on KOS is another bag of shit. What a waste of time to read. You Obama stormtroopers are going to fuck around and lose this election with this sort of thinking. Tell your friends that Obama just lost three votes in this…

The Top 5 John McCain Flip-Flops

Here is a list of the top five John McCain flip-flops of the 2008 election so far. McCain has shown that his strongest trait as a candidate is his ability to change his position and contradict himself at any time. What is most amazing is McCain’s flip-flopping knows no limits.

John McCain used to support amnesty for illegal immigrants. May 29, 2003 interview: “Amnesty has to be an important part because there are people who have lived in this country for 20, 30 or 40 years, who have raised children here and pay…

The Israeli Lobby In American Politics: Why War With Iran?

US support of Israel is 3 billion dollars a year. Despite Israel being a rich country, it receives more foreign aid than any other country in the world. Israel has no other major allies other than the US. What would happen if US abandoned Israel? Even the Israel lobby with all their political muscle would be powerless to prevent it.

Tony Judt makes an interesting historical analogy between the Roman relationship with Judea and the U.S. relationship with Israel. He says that Rome tolerated Judea’s troublesome behavior for a time because it did not threaten them. But…

B.J. Lawson, Ron Paul Republican for U.S. Congress

Just came across this great blog post on the net discussing B.J. Lawson, a Ron Paul-endorsed candidate for U.S. Congress in North Carolina’s 4th District. B.J. is, to quote blogger Daniel McCarthy, a “sterling” Ron Paul Republican. Seems like a good lad. He’s having a money bomb organized for him tomorrow at http://lawsonlibertyfund.com.

And for yet another reminder of what we're up against, here's another viewing of B.J. vs. David Price, in which Congressman Price excuses his vote for the Patriot Act by saying it was “passed overwhelmingly” and it was just a…

Why Does John McCain Hate America?

Imagine the GOP reaction if Barack Obama flew on a French-built campaign charter, a Canadian-built campaign bus, held two big London fundraisers over three months, gave his economic speech in Canada, rolled-out his free trade platform in Mexico and Columbia and never wore an American flag lapel pin…So, why does John McCain do all of the above?

Preface: I am a strong Obama supporter.I don't think posting blog titles (especially on important sites like this one) with “Why does candidate X hate America?” is ever really a good idea. That sort of sensationalism may be a…

Obama donates to Clinton campaign

Sen. Barack Obama donated $2,300 Thursday to the campaign of his former opponent, Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton.

Concern about the division in the party arose because the two candidates appealed to such different segments of the electorate. Clinton did well with working-class voters and the elderly. Obama rallied the support of affluent,…

GOP/Congress/GWB to be served for not upholding constitution

There is a development unfolding that could very well become a “show stopper” for the GOP expecting the nomination of John McCain to proceed smoothly at the national convention. In 5 days, the GOP candidates, the president, and congress will receive Petitions for Redress demanding accountability for not upholding the constitution.

Won't you please consider committing to a $7/ month WTP Congress Membership so we can win the battle to restore Constitutional Order?
