Scary Stat of the Day

From Jean Miller, Director of International Initiatives for Linden Labs (Otherwise known as the company that made Second Life.)
Second Life is now 750 Square Kilometers.
Singapore is 700 Square Kilometers.
Wow.
I’m listening to her speak right now, and she has that whole "I’m talking really softly and spewing stats that are making you incredibly jealous (like pre-localization […]



“An Hour A Day.”

That’s how much time people with Internet access, on average, around the world, spend online. That’s 30 hours a month. I’m not talking about people in my industry - We’re the ones online 24/7. But think of this - Young adults - TV down 8%, Radio down 44%, Internet up 98%, from 2000-2003. These numbers […]



Hello from the future…

Think about it this way: Since it’s 12 hours later here than there, I’m going to start telling people I can see the future.
Got up this morning and hit the gym. Again, no jet-lag, and a few miles on the treadmill confirmed it. By 9:30am, I was out and about, exploring Singapore on my only […]



34 hours later, I pop back on the grid in Singapore.

Well. That was a fun 34 hours.

Flight from JFK to South Korea was as pleasant as could be - […]

OK, the Singapore Airport ROCKS

Update:
You can tell I’m tired: Yes, Singapore airport DOES rock. However, I’ve got a 12 hour layover in SEOUL, on my WAY to Singapore. Sigh. Sometimes I wonder if I’m just undiagnosed as developmentally challenged.
How amazingly cool is this? I did some homework, and found out that apparently, Singapore is known for layovers of great […]



Singapore, Seoulfully

Headed to Singapore tonight for another conference - Digerati Asia (the one directly to the right.) Have an 11-hour layover in Seoul, from Sunday morning at 4:30am to Sunday evening. Rather than hunt for Uranium at the border, I’m searching for any running clubs/races that might take place on Sunday in Seoul. (Assuming I’m let […]



O’Reilly last night

Wow… Talk about sex on a Fox News show, and the hate mail just comes right in! Awesome!

Tallies so far:
Compliments: 7
I’m going to hell: 2
Men are not pigs, I disagree: 3
Men are pigs, but I disagree with everything else you said: 2
My kids shouldn’t be subjected to condom ads: 1 (to which I ask what […]



Doing O’Reilly again tonight

Will be O’Reilly’s Marketing Pundit again tonight, this time talking about the huge uproar with the new Trojan Condoms "Evolve" ad. Tune in, if you’ve nothing better to do. Will post video tomorrow.



Peter vs. Karma
