Traffic is the key for success in online business. It is crucial for a business blog. It is well known that most of the bloggers are aware of the importance of content, relationships and promotions to generate traffic...But do note that blog commenting cannot be relied as a major or a sole traffic source. You have to spend quite some time in commenting on other blogs (which means you have to read a lot of blog posts). And, you have to be consistent in doing this. Via Ileane Smith Delete the scoop?

Content curation will play a major role both in the way we teach and in the way we educate ourselves on any topic. When and where it will be adopted, it will deeply affect many key aspects of the educational ecosystem. An increasing number of alternatives to academic-based traditional certification systems are emerging. These non-academic new certification systems have the power to dent into universities dearest asset: the lock between content being taught and the test/assessments that are supposed to certify a student competence on it. These alternative certification systems are likely to provide alternative means for many individuals to demonstrate and be valued for their skills without a need to attend academic courses, to pay expensive tuition fees, to purchase new textbooks, and to pay for exam/certification costs.

A short while ago, I wrote an article on this site suggesting that you can’t build a brand simply by setting out to build a brand. Great comment from Therese Torris accurately summarizes my thinking before reading this article. After reading it I'm not as sure: Therese Torris (Today, 5:55 AM): Via Martin (Marty) Smith

I think brands are huge but they're so many and so pervasive that we don't perceive them any more. We swim in brands like fish in the ocean, we "google", we "send from my iPad", we wear logos on our forehead... but thanks for the food for thoughts...

Thanks Therese. Included your comment in the post since it is so representative of my thinking before reading this article. Granted I read this piece very LATE last night (lol), but there is something in the conversations we are having that seems to move brands off their all knowing, all powerful pedestal. I used Mr. Clean because I started my career with P&G, the home of the all powerful brands and the creators of the soap opera. P&G's moving their ad dollars out of soap operas seemed an import SOT (sign of the times) a year (or so) ago. I agree brands are important still, but HOW and WHY are changing for me. Thanks. Marty

How Flash Pals is gaining traction with its fuzzy animal-themed storage devices. Finding a cute flash drive for his girlfriend’s birthday proved more difficult than Doug Stienstra imagined. At the time a student at The University of Iowa, Stienstra searched the mall and the internet, disappointed to find that the nontraditional flash drives on the market were unattractive and overpriced. So he took a DIY approach: He bought a fuzzy finger puppet from a toy store and glued it to a standard USB drive. The gift was a hit. “All of her friends loved the flash drive and started asking me to make one for them,” recalls Stienstra, now 23. “I knew I was onto something.” Delete the scoop?
