Resource “Friday” – Sept 30, 2010



Google Instant, Mobile Browsing, and LinkedIn Takes on Facebook

But inside, we munched on turkey barbecue sandwiches from Hitz’s Farm Market and talked about all things internet-related.

Logs, Social CRM, Chess, Motivation, and Asking the Right Questions

Resource Friday at YDOP Internet MarketingWhile this Resource Friday is a little late, it’s for a good reason. Part of our “resourcing” the past two weeks has involved the refresh of the YDOP website! So, if you’re reading this on an RSS feed reader, you might want to cruise on over to ydop.com to see what all the hubbub is about. In the meantime, here’s what (else) we talked about on Friday.

Resource Friday – July 30, 2010



Branding, Facebook, Social CRM, XKCD, and more

Resource Friday at YDOP Internet MarketingThis week saw the triumphant return of Steve from his tour of the Great American West. From the grandeur of the Grand Canyon to the old Hollywood history of Palm Springs to the spectacle of Sight and Sound Theater in Branson, MO — and all the massively boring deserts in-between — he saw it all.
