Best marketing scams ever

  1. Smoking makes cool
  2. Gambling is based on skill and only partly on luck
  3. Stars play MMORPGs
  4. The government is always right
  5. Radio killed Books, TV killed Radio, Internet killed Enterprises
  6. Internet Marketing is different to selling snake oil
  7. social media sites are interested in conversation instead of monetizing your private data

Once you start thinking for yourself life takes a nasty little twist, not everything is as it seems. Usually bad, but very profitable things, are promoted by a lot of people. Even those you think who are trustworthy. Be careful who you offer your trust. Don’t put your creative capital in the hands of someone else. Make sure you are the one who makes the money, and not the pawn working for a big content landlord.

Humble Champions

Being the MMA fan that I am, I have a soft spot for some fighters. Even though one might not agree on the religious believes of some fighters, it’s hard to look down on them. Espeically if they could simply smack you up. I guess you must have a lot faith to step into the ring and be as calm as Fedor is, but this exhebition bout just shows the class he has. Compared to a lot other fighters who are, well, american. I think it’s fun that he does not care about speaking english or joining the biggest competition and giving up his promotional rights. Being free enough to make those decisions shows how good you actually are.
