Oh, I’m very much a Hunter! But being a Gemini, I do have a kind of split-personality. So, occasionally I chill out and become a “Farmer”. Not for too long though
I’ve been a fan of Guy Kawasaki for a while now. Not a fan-boi type, but still admired him enough to call myself a “fan”. I follow him on Twitter, read his blog occasionally, and love to watch his videos as he is a great presenter and speaker who adds a lot of humor and [...]
I believe it is critically important to have role models, teachers, mentors, gurus, leaders, spiritual guides – from whom we can draw courage, inspiration, enlightenment, guidance – in times of need at various stages of our life. So here’s a short list of my role models, who have all tremendously inspired me, taught me, and [...]
Did you know that the incredibly famous Nike “Swoosh” logo was created by a graphic design student desperate to pay for a dress for an upcoming party, for a stunning total of $35 (at $2/hour)? I watched a Nike documentary recently, where they interviewed Philip Knight (one of Nike’s Founders), “His Airness” Michael Jordan, and [...]
I use Amazon S3 to host my business videos. S3 offers incredible performance, unlimited storage, and is extremely affordable. Another Purple Cow from Amazon. Plus it looks a lot more professional than hosting your business videos on a crowded social video site with user generated videos and ads surrounding it. Amazon S3 for video hosting. [...]
This is turning into a “Seth Godin Week” at RavisRants.com. But if you’re like me, you can’t get enough of what Seth has to say. So enjoy… ‘curiosity’ from Nic Askew on Vimeo.
Ok, I was being dramatic. Plus I’m straight (and I think Seth is too). Last evening, I was fortunate to be a part of a private group that participated in Seth presentation for his new book, “Tribes” . The presentation was “remarkable!”, as Seth would’ve said himself. Filled with extraordinary images, and almost no text, [...]
“Twit” is no longer just a mean word I signed up for Twitter a while ago. But I never “got it” – until recently – when I figured out the awesomeness of microblogging. Seth Godin wrote this on his blog: “My goal in creating this blog is to spread my ideas and keep me from [...]
I’ve always talked to folks about having a sense of urgency in life. Because that’s how I operate. I look at the young & successful, and I feel like I’m 10 years behind. And I don’t think that’s a bad thing either. If you don’t have nowhere to go and nothing to achieve, then you [...]
Quite frequently, I am reminded of how we take certain things for granted, while it could be something completely new/interesting/educating/shocking for someone else. Using Google Alerts for competitive research is one such “thing”. During a chat with a friend the other day, I casually mentioned how I use Google Alerts to keep an eye on [...]
If I had to pick just one blog, and could read only one blog for the rest of my life – including my own blog (the one you’re reading right now) – I would pick Seth Godin’s blog. Seth’s blog is (hyperbole alert) amazing, educational, informative, remarkable, mind-blowing, extraordinary, purple, eye-opening and goose-pimple-raising good. Seth’s [...]
