Hill Holiday's blog tracks their recent results with Jerzify Yourself. The site allows you to: in the words of Village Voice: ”The gist is Snooki-grade simple: upload a medium-sized jpg, scale the image to fit, choose your spraytan shade, pick your pose — and holy Freckles McGee, you’re magically recast as a human meatball.”
We all see a lot of this and wonder what impact it has on the brand, Hill Holiday shares their numbers. Worth a read. >>>

Whether long-form for watching their favorite show or short form for entertainment, online, video is the communication media. Your company, whether B2B or B2C, has a message to tell its customers, shouldn't that message be done in video?

Finally science and information to back up my preference of work intervals ...
This article talks about effectively working in 90-minute increments.
Tony argues that we “should try to get things done in bursts of intensely focused activity, interspersed with periods of rest and recovery.”
I do my best work this way -- for example, my plan for today --- up 5:00 a.m., work on a script for 90 minutes, take a bike ride, back for e-mail correspondence, take a break to go to recycling, then back at the computer or to a meeting depending on correspondence.
Does this work for you?
