– Wieden + Kennedy Tech Incubator Picks Its Startup Class of 2011 (via fastcompany)
Because it is users first, brands right right? That totally won’t be a problem even if we expect brands to pick up the tab. Right?

Very excited about Mashape. I am kind of obsessed with them and was honored to be able to take part in their round.
If you’re a developer and into APIs, check out Mashape. It’s kind of amazing for discovery and learning around APIs.

Also, I am old, should not be wearing pigtails, did not actually write my dissertation, and am destined to be a “comunity college professor”.
Hilarious comments aside, the point I was making is that internet memes have been largely ignored in academia so far— not that they are dismissed by everybody. Obviously not, since I made the same exact point that Adrien Chen did...

FancyHands.com
On the suggestion of Michael Gruen I joined Fancy Hands yesterday. And I am very impressed. For $65 a month you can delegate unlimited requests. Now you ask what can you possibly delegate?

Things I am looking for at the...

Facebook Fans and Commodities Futures?
Do other community manager types get pedantic? I may have just taken the time to talk about cotton futures and the rising cost of raw silk in response to a fan concerned about whether inferior fabrics were being used in her clothing. I mean she did ask (well complain is probably more accurate) about low quality materials so I went all well let me tell you about our sourcing team and how silk is at...
