Kudos for the title if nothing else.

That is exactly how you run a business. Business isn't just about products. You need people to buy them. If your brand is tarnished because people don't like you, it doesn't matter…

Bluetooth, the Internet, Smartphones, Twitter, Facebook. All were technologies that had to incubate quite some time, some for a decade or more, before they were widely usable. It c…

True, but I think the sentiment is correct at least in selling food. It's hard to get rich selling spinach, but it's easy to get rich selling Sugar-Frosted Excitement Pops - now ma…

Awesome. The guy was a decent human being, but more than likely made 20, 30, 100 times back his purchase in goodwill. Brilliant.

Just regular maintenance. I loved the car. I just wanted something that went from A to B and it did it until it's dying day.

Move Over BMW, My Kia Cost $12,000. I had a Kia that did the job for 230,000 miles. If all you want is transportation, it does the job. If you want all the nice things that come wi…

Honestly, it was a brilliant move by both Microsoft and Nokia. Microsoft dropped to 3% of the global market share for smartphones and Nokia's 2/3 market share dominance was nearly …

If the argument is "they are obsolete because they don't do native mobile", that is a poor argument to make. Where is the data to support it? It's simply a theory wrapped up as a c…
