The New Fish Rocks
Wednesday, September 17th, 2008Congrats to the entire gang at Fish for their awesome renovation and reopening…the place looks amazing and the menus are tasty. On Thursday night I sampled the crab rangoon and shrimp soup, and on Friday lunch the whole BI team gathered at the moo shoo bar. Charleston needed this. Here are a few shots from [...]

Obama’s Social Networking
Friday, September 5th, 2008Back on the topic of presidential campaigns and their websites, I just finished reading a good article from Technology Review about how the Obama campaign has leveraged social media to drive participation and support. It’s full of good lessons for anyone trying to energize a community (of supporters, buyers, etc.).
Because you’ll need to register on [...]

How They Roll
Thursday, September 4th, 2008Had to post this because it’s just a cool piece of skateboarding video. Pretty nutty ride. It’s also a smart piece of fashion marketing/publicity….as the production is a collaboration between men’s fashion designer Adam Kimmel and his artist friend. Rather than a typical Fashion Week campaign, they dressed two riders in baby-blue Kimmel suits and [...]

Happy Birthday Mike!
Tuesday, September 2nd, 2008Today we celebrated Mike’s day of birth with a fun-filled BBQ feast at Melvins. Because September 1 is the most special of days, we asked one of his heroes to stop by for singing and cake. Funny thing…the a/c is always cranking at Melvins so we all had to wear ski jackets. I only wish [...]

Attack of the Bat
Friday, August 29th, 2008It seemed kind of funny at the time. You wake up and there’s a little bat flying around (inside) the house. There are lots of bats in downtown Charleston. I like bats. So what if one snuck inside? In fact, we often sit outside with a drink at sunset and cheer them on as the [...]

Tuesday, August 26th, 2008In keeping with Chris’ political e-marketing coverage, the Obama campaign’s recent “Biden is our pick for VP” text message was a milestone event. Nielsen Mobile reports that an estimated 2.9 million people received the message.
Nielsen describes the release as the single largest mobile marketing event in the U.S. to date…and it offers valuable lessons to [...]

15 Kilo Ego Booster
Sunday, August 24th, 2008I am a huge soccer fan, so checking out soccernet.com is a daily ritual, especially since the English Premier League just kicked off.
Since transfers and new player signings are always part of the headlines in the off-season and into the beginning of the season, I’ve been keeping a close eye on all the latest signings.
