New Media versus Traditional Outlets - Oops Intelligent-Interest
If New Media wants to have an argument about which is better, new or traditional media, they first have to change the way in which money baits them. If they depend on volume for a hit-or-miss revenue model, we won’t get news. The New Media writers like Paul Carr ain’t broken, their business models are…
How Would I Start Up A Start Up Differently? Intelligent-Interest
For months now, I’ve been involved with a project that has too many chefs in the kitchen. The truth of the matter is, it seems that too many times (as I’ve read other VC blogs and start up stories) there’s a good chance that there are waiters pretending to be chefs, in the kitchen.

The other day, I was actually having a bit of a crisis when discussing with a friend just where the city-center for modern philosophers was. New York – art. DC – museums.

Can 960.gs Save The Day? Intelligent-Interest
The GRID system in CSS is almost everywhere. Most large sites use it to squeeze advertising into blocks that run for miles up the sides. The Grid system was actually a way to harmonize creative site design as the missing connection between website design in Photoshop and other graphic programs and code like CSS and Forms used by Blog software like Textpattern and WordPress.
But can it help a first-time user in a pinch?

I’m a huge fan of Transparent Languages and the CD’s that they make to help you learn and understand different languages around the World. My first experience was in FEB 1999 when I purchased “51 Languages of the World” and heard, for the first time, Farsi, Urdu, Lativian, Tagalog and a slew of others. After reinstalling the set nine years later to polish up on Danish and French, I checked out the Transparent.com website…
