Want your website to look great on smartphones, tablets, PCs and even TVs? Learn how to go fully responsive.
The Web and the mobile browsers remain one of the top ways that users interact with websites and if they have trouble on their smartphone, there is a good chance they are not coming back. That’s where responsive design can help. Responsive design is a concept where you build your website once and then format it so it can adapt to any screen size that accesses it. Designers use HTML5 and CSS to build the sites and set parameters so the content will resize itself whether the user is in vertical or horizontal viewing mode, on a tablet, desktop or smartphone or even a screen as large as a television...

Wearing the 6 Thinking Hats on your blog helps in generating valuable, interesting and diverse content.
What are the 6 Thinking Hats?
Dr. Edward de Bono’s 6 Thinking Hats is a simple, effective parallel thinking process that helps people be more productive, focused, and mindfully involved. And once they’re learned, the tools can be applied immediately!
The premise of this concept is that the human brain thinks in a number of distinct ways which can be identified, deliberately accessed and hence used in a structured way to develop strategies for thinking about particular issues.
De Bono identifies six distinct states in which the brain can be “sensitized”. In each of these states, the brain will identify and bring into conscious thought certain aspects of issues being considered. Via Martin Gysler Delete the scoop?

It took me 101 days to hit 1,012 subscribers. I did it by using a very simple strategy that was free from overwhelm and stress.
Most bloggers never get past the 1,000 subscriber mark, or create a profitable online business, not because they aren’t good, but because they are afraid to use the most effective tools available.
I worked hard during those 101 days, but I loved every second of it. Looking back, I can still see where I made mistakes, but making mistakes is not the problem, not taking action is.
If you can consistently take action, you will achieve your goals.
And the way to consistently have the fuel to take action is to find and follow your passion.
We all have something like this inside of us.
If you can find a topic you could die for, you’re on the right track. If someone had a gun to your head and you had to choose one topic to write about for the next few years, what would you choose?... Via Martin Gysler Delete the scoop?

Email The Register Of Ecommerce
Email As Mobile Life Curator * Create responsive email (email must look great on all devices). * Use PERSONAS and SEGMENTS together. * Tell STORIES over TIME. * Curate User Generated Content INTO your email marketing. * Count and trend unopens as a NO. * Create & Trend new KPIs such as $ / sent, $ / opens. * Keep emails OFF your website (dupe content and hurt heuristics).
This last bullet needs some explanation. Your email marketing needs a "can't see this email view it here" link, but keep your creative in a NON-SPIDERED folder.
Allowing your emails to get spidered can cause duplicate content problems and the heuristics of your emails don't help since, if you are creating great Call To Action emails, your audience will not spend much time on your emails as they are simply attention getter pass through to points of conversion.

The iPad is, quite possibly, one of the best way for marketers to enhance their brand image and interact with customers. With iPad in hand, your customers have the ability to view product information and engage with interactive content, all the while staying mobile.
More than half of all adults in the US own either a tablet or a smartphone, and one-third use mobile devices to surf the Web and watch video; no wonder marketers are creating platforms designed explicitly for mobile devices.
Creating a marketing campaign using the iPad can increase the customer conversation by delivering exactly what customers want, when and where they want it.
Though the iPad is the perfect marketing medium for reaching the new mobile generation, marketers are struggling to find new and innovative ways that encourage and enhance customer conversation. Here are a few basic steps you should keep in mind when optimizing your collateral for the iPad. Via Martin (Marty) Smith, Brian Yanish - MarketingHits.com

I don’t read a lot of business books. (Actually, I never read them.) But I do read the lists of the best-selling business books. Those lists give you a lot of insight into the current trendy areas for leadership and strategy. That’s a good reason to run in the opposite direction. Fast.
I made all those up, but you get the point. At Conduit, our 7-year-old Israeli startup, we don’t necessarily do things by the book.
