It took a tragedy for me to understand how powerful social media can be. When my mother passed away 15 months ago, I watched as what felt like half of the internet shut down in her memory on the day of her funeral. People I had never met were memorializing her and creating a nationwide [...]. (Read More)

I spent the wee hours of this morning walking down San Bruno road in the dark and the cold, walking over the 101 and into the San Francisco Airport until my father picked me up and took me to the airport monorail. Why, you ask? Well, to be honest, it’s kind of mix of my [...]. (Read More)

I’ve been improvising for 15 years now. I love improv; the challenge of creating entertainment from nothing has always attracted me; I get a rush from working without a net like that. I’ve taken classes from a ton of different theaters: Groundlings, Second City, ImprovOlympic and more, but there are two big things I’ve lear (Read More)

Secret blogging tip: When you’re “blocked” you can find an interesting video and share it with people. That totally counts.
I don’t know what my favorite part of this video is, but I think the fact that it isn’t blues music at all in a dead heat with the bouncing twitter bird, which I could sit [...]. (Read More)

If you’re only using the Twitter website, you’re not really using twitter – something I overheard at BlogWorld that keeps rolling around in my head along with the theme to “Family Ties”. The point is that even with their new “Lists” feature (I’ll talk about that another time), you’re losing out on squeezing everything you [ (Read More)

I don’t use newsletters, and I tend not to read them unless they’re from my wife. If you’re reading this and I’m somehow on your newsletter list, don’t be surprised. The reason why is simple: I don’t opt in to any of them so I’m not really looking for any of the information they provide. [...]. (Read More)

One time after performing at the old Second City space on Melrose avenue, I wandered over to the Improv Comedy Club next door as many of us did. I was always on the lookout for famous comedians, since a lot of them would come in to hang out and be famous. This particular night who [...]. (Read More)

One of the things I love about Facebook is that it’s kind of all things to all people. Some people use it mostly for the games, and that’s fine with me. Some use it to reach out to customers and create an online community around their product/service. I’m cool with that too. I use it [...]. (Read More)

Happy Birthday, The Internet! Oh, the times we’ve had together. When I was but a child, I play chess with people in russia using you (and a Commodore64) and felt that in some small way I was doing my part to end the cold war. When I was in high school, you let me send email [...]. (Read More)

Like I said in a post last week, I’ve tried a bunch of different things on Twitter. A lot of them didn’t work out. One that I left in place longer than I should have was the Auto-DM. For the layperson (no sexism on this blog!), DM refers to “direct message”, a private message between [...]. (Read More)
