Martin (Marty) Smith's insight:
Cool writer marketplace created by my friend Byron White. Byron is a brilliant entrepreneur who literal wrote the book on how to write BOTH for search engine spiders and to engage an audience.
WriterAccess points out the power of platforms over websites. I spoke with Byron today to catch up and he emphasized how much more powerful creating a market place has been. Helps to have a great programmer who gets it too as Byron does.
Content is king. No matter how much content you are creating it isn't enough. My recommendation would be to supplement any Internet marketing teams output with writers who know about "stop words" and great headlines.
Find them at my friend Byron's WriterAccess. Oh, and if you are a writer use WriterAccess to find clients who, as Byron just told me on the phone, "Focus on the writing".

Feeds are in all of our futures. Feeds can fulfill Google QDF (Quality Deserves Freshness) needs and increase engagement. Tint looks like a promising tool. Delete the scoop?

Great advice in here even as I suspect it sounds easier than it actually IS :).

Thanks to Marty Zwilling on StartupProfessionals for distilling some of the key traits that have made Amazon, Apple, Facebook and Google such uniquely successful companies. From the article intro: "According to many technology pundits, including Phil Simon, in his book “The Age of the Platform,” these four exemplify the rise of platforms with applications as a business model, rather than a single product or service. Whether you believe his conclusion or not, you can learn a lot from the lessons he offers on how to build a competitive business model today." The article provides ten key principles utilized by this "gang of four" to reach their broad business success. Here my favorite four: 1) Act small. “Bigness” and all of its attendant problems – bureaucracy, politics, infighting, and the like – put any business model at risk. Bureaucracy and excessive democracy kill speed. Shake organizations up often to avoid stiff and inflexible management structures. 3) Move quickly and decisively when spotting a niche. Don’t confuse patience with inertia. Waiting too long means that an opportunity may disappear permanently – or someone else may beat you to the punch. Temper expectations, but make the bet. 4) Use existing tools. It’s time consuming, expensive, and simply unnecessary for every company to create its own tools and base functions (planks) from scratch. By using outposts, businesses increase serendipity, exposure, and cross-pollination. Valuable. To the point. 7/10 Full article: http://blog.startupprofessionals.com/2013/03/10-entrepreneurial-lessons-from-gang-of.html Delete the scoop?

Gaia, Woobox works only on your FB Pages, NOT on your FB profile. That's the reason why you can't get it to do what you want. It doesn't do that. :-)

Note to self: this oould be a good place to find writers with a penchant for video who would value a new, non-linear way to present stories in video.
