Hmm … beginning to think there’s something to the fact that words matter on your website … guess I’m not alone. I received the following email today from my partner, Sonja Howle, who teaches a course at The Academy on how to select the proper artwork to reinforce your company’s essence.

"The thing I’m most excited
about is the next phases of Internet development, which I believe will be about
storytelling. You need good storytellers … I don’t think the Internet as a
medium has come anywhere close to realizing its potential as a storytelling
medium."

So you have time to remove my comment but you can’t give us your “daily multivitamin” of marketing advice? Nice.

Dan,
Thanks. I tried to send you an email, but you posted a fake email address, and you did so again this time.
My notebook crashed, and I’m working off a very frustrating, primitive fascimile.
I had thought we’d pulled those while I’m waiting for the parts to repair and do a fresh install, but I was wrong.
I appreciate you looking calling me on it, though I did try to fix it. I’ll leave this one up.
In the future, why not give me your real email address.
Thanks. tm
