Creating Content
Wow, where did Friday sneak up from? I totally wasn’t ready for that. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not complaining, but I just wasn’t ready for it.
Even though I’m feeling less then 100% today it feels good to get some new content out there. I just imported a huge batch of photos into Aperture that […]
Noodle Favor
So earlier today I tweeted about someone asking me for a Noodle Favor and how great of a term I thought it was.
I noticed some people asking what it was, so I figured I’d post here what it is all about.
FULL credit goes to my good buddy J.C. Hutchins for being the first person to […]
Life, Changes & Breakfast
I just finished having breakfast with Scott Monty. Rather then one of our excursions out to a diner somewhere I had him over to the house and I cooked Accident Hash for us. Over coffee and hash we caught up on a lot of things, talked about his new job at Ford and life in […]
Teddy Helps Homeless Kids
Anyone who knows me, knows that I’m a big supporter of anything that helps a good cause.
That is why when The Advance Guard began working with the Campfire and Verizon FiOS My Home 2.0 teams around the Twittering Teddy idea, I was psyched that at the end of it the plan was to auction off […]
What Would YOU Say to World Leaders?
It has been a busy week of client initiatives going live around here and this one I’m especially interested in seeing what people think of it.
Before we began working with mDialog, I had never heard of the J8 Summit that happens each time a G8 conference goes on and is organized by UNICEF. It is […]
CokeTag and My Thoughts
Full Disclosure: The Coca-Cola Company is a client of The Advance Guard and we are currently working with them around the CokeTag initiative.
I’m going to be honest that when I first saw the CokeTag application my reaction was along the lines of “nice and easy to use, but it would be better if it wasn’t […]
Whirlwind Weekend
The Chapman Clan had a busy weekend.
Friday night, my parents came down. We ended up sitting by the fire place out back, roasting hot dogs and eating cannoli I bought the night before from the North End. Not a typical fireside dessert, but it sure did work!
Saturday Dylan had a soccer game that we […]
A Break from the Heat
Wow did it feel good to wake up this morning and not be drenched in the humidity that we’ve been dealing with for the past few days. The heat wave has just been sucking my energy right out of me and I hope it doesn’t come back any time soon.
Had a business trip to Nashville […]
Barack Obama Wins the Nomination - A Special Night
Last night was one of those nights that I’m not going to forget any time soon.
I sat and watched CNN as the numbers came rolling in. When we got home and I turned on the TV the first thing I saw was a line about Obama only needing 4 more delegates to get the nomination. […]
Accident Hash Featuring Tom Acousti
I’m listening back to Accident Hash #269 which features Tom Acousti’s set from my house concert from Friday. Perfect writing music this morning.
You can see the show notes here or download the MP3 directly.
Really looking forward to getting some video out from the night as well. That is going to be fun to see. I […]
