| Second Edition |
|
Life is good these days. Our new firm, Flat World Media,
has been very well received by its initial set of customers. Now
it is all about execution. That's what been keeping me from
putting out this second edition. Not to mention some spam issues
that kept my postings from being posted. But I have finally
completed another chapter. As always, please check out my blog, The Innovation Scout, for even more thoughts on these and other subjects.

| The Innovation Scout Newsletter |
Dear Mark,
There
is so much to write about these days, it is hard to decide what to
highlight here. But I think this month's newsletter has some
pretty good examples of how people are changing our world and our
lives. I hope to hear your thoughts and opinions! Please
let me know what you think.

Yes, I broke down and bought the 8GB iPhone. Here's why I dropped my Treo 700w (Windows) for the iPhone:
- The
Treo was just unreliable. Actually it was probably more the Windows
Mobile operating system that was unreliable. Either way, it would
reboot for no reason in my back pocket or just not wake up when a call
came in. Not acceptable. The iPhone has yet to stop working.
- Email attachments were useless on the 700w. The iPhone can view nearly anything.
- Surfing was painful. If the website didn't recognize me as
a small screen device, it was next to impossible to view. The iPhone's
Safari is just phenomenal here.
So that's why I switched. Here are the reasons I like it even more than the Treo. Click here to read more of my iPhone review |
Releases Your Email
Last Friday I finally received my invite to test out a new tool that reportedly made email easier to use, Xobni.
This Web 2.0 application claims to make our use of email more efficient. I
don't know about those claims, but I do know that it has some nice
features. Click here to read more about Xobni
