TWICE in the last week, I have been reminded (unintentionally) that I’m old. Case #1: At the office, hanging out with the lunch crew, and someone references one of my peers. “He was a VP when he was, like, 30,” one guy said, “But times were different then.” “What does that mean?” I asked. “You [...]
Dream

Last night, I had a dream that went a little like this: I was in a training class on some social media measurement software. Sitting next to me was Eric T. Peterson. It was like that awkward scene from Twilight, where Bella sits next to Edward in science class for the first time and he [...]

Today I’m on the road, traveling to a church conference in Louisville, Kentucky. I think it’s important to take a little spiritual time-out every now and then.

You’ll see why in just a moment. Yesterday I ragged on Eric Peterson, mostly because I like to give him crap – but partly because I did [...]

I don’t usually blog about “professional” things unless it’s to poke fun at myself. Or unless I’m really fired up about something. This particular entry falls into the latter category. You see, once again Eric T. Peterson has annoyed me into blogging my position on certain web analytics topics. In and of itself, that’s not [...]

About a week ago, I challenged the folks that report to me to do the Google Analytics IQ test online. We’re supposed to be the digital experts at our company, and it seemed like a good idea to make sure we really understood everything we could about GA, which is one of the big web [...]

Yesterday, GT came to work with me. He wasn’t sick or anything, but he just wanted to hang out. Now, I have a pretty fun office. We have Wii, and air hockey, and ping pong. GT spent most of the day playing Wii. He played with a dog for a while (people bring their dogs [...]
