The New York Times just released a very interesting article about the correlation between physical contact and success. (Evidence That Little Touches Do Mean So Much). I heard Jim Rome mention it on his radio program over lunch today. In it they talk about studies that are being conducted linking momentary touches with professional success.

		<description><![CDATA[I have noticed a trend lately (albeit based on a very limited pool) of individuals completely shutting down their Facebook, Twitter, blogs and other accounts. The reason hasn&#8217;t been some addictive behaviors they haven&#8217;t been able to control. Each instance has been because the user feels a sense of guilt that they don&#8217;t post as [...]]]></description>

A perspective on analyzing marketing data

You may be familiar with one or each of these great minds (Gödel, Escher, Bach or Hofstadter). I discovered the book while wandering through the philosophy section at a Border&#8217;s Bookstore about 10 [...]]]></description>

Typically, an immediate reaction to any idea is to find all the reasons why it won&#8217;t work. This is such a natural response in so many of us. I&#8217;m not sure of all the reasons behind it: maybe its ego; maybe it&#8217;s insecurity (and I have this [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A metaphor of baseball and banks

As I write this, I&#8217;m finding many analogies out there between the economy and the steroids epidemic in baseball. Each of those comparisons liken the stimulus to steroids. However, I think the analogy works better when going back a little further. The stimulus is the government&#8217;s attempt to make up [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[
Collaboration is a common buzzword (especially in politics and advertising). It suggests creativity and innovation.  Yet, we seem to mistake collaboration for something more unproductive: compromise.
