The End of Macworld Expo?
Apple Computer announced yesterday that this January’s Macworld Expo in San Francisco will be the final one in which it is involved. And CEO Steve Jobs will not even deliver his traditional keynote at the event next month.
The east coast Macworld Expo (originally in Boston, then moved to New York City, and finally moved back [...]
Escaping Dell Hell
I’m fed up with Dell Computer. Their systems and service have gotten progressively worse over the last few years, and I’m not going to take it any more.
The final straw was the most recent computer I purchased from Dell Online. You see, for some reason, Dell doesn’t tell you when there’s a problem with the order. They just cancel it. No email. No call. Nothing. [...]
Dr. Mac (Bob LeVitus) Now Has a Blog!
Well-known author in the Macintosh industry, long time Austin, Texas resident, and former boss of yours truly at Power Computing, Bob “Dr. Mac” LeVitus finally has a blog! Bob’s actually been blogging for a couple of weeks, but I just found out about it.
Some of my earliest web work was creating an online site for [...]
Barack Obama and the Automaker Bailout
Given that I’m certainly going to bitch about Obama when he makes decisions with which I disagree (and I expect there to be many), it’s only fair that I give him credit for the good ideas.
It was leaked today that the Obama team is interested in exploring a prepackaged bankruptcy for the automakers. This is [...]
Where Were the PubCon Exhibitors?
PubCon last week was a fantastic show. It had the strongest, most useful content of any search show I’ve been to in the last few years. The attendees were numerous and enthusiastic.
One area was curiously weak, however: the exhibitor floor.
There were less than fifty exhibitors for the entire show. Most of these were search engines, [...]
PubCon Search Engine Smackdown
The final session of PubCon last week was the Search Engine Smackdown, with representatives of each engine giving a “State of the Engine” address, and then answering questions as a group. On the panel were Matt Cutts of Google, Sean Suchter of Yahoo, and Nathan Buggia of Microsoft Live Search. It was moderated by Brett [...]
PubCon Interactive Site Reviews Final
The final round of Interactive Site Reviews at PubCon included a panel from the search engines themselves. It was moderated by Greg Boser and included Matt Cutts of Google, Nathan Buggia of Microsoft Live Search, and Tony Adam of Yahoo Media.
Instead of taking notes, I decided to shoot pictures instead.
If you know of good coverage [...]
We’ll Miss You, Online Market World
Over the weekend, it was revealed that Online Market World, a two-year old conference in San Francisco, has been discontinued.

I’m sad to see it go, as my business partner had spoken at both conferences, and my firm, Apogee Search had exhibited at the most recent one last month. It had [...]
