Come to the edge,
We might fall.
Come to the edge.
It’s too high!
COME TO THE EDGE
And they came
and he pushed
and they flew. . .
- Christopher Logue
How do consumers feel about your brand?… really feel?… true valid insight in real time? Obtaining and measuring this information is nothing new, but a method that taps into blogs and other social generated content to obtain this information via on an online application is quite interesting. Check out Scoutlabs and their teaser demo. Some insight into scoutlabs can also be found at their blog.
A friend of mine is an “Experience Architect” at this San Francisco based start-up. I’m sure you have heard the buzz here and there. Its still in beta, but with such an interesting concept, I look forward to seeing how this initiative progresses.

| ColoritStudio website (pirated) | |||
| Once again, another one of my sites have been pirated. This has happened before with some of my other sites. This is the second time, as I know of, that variousways.com has been ripped off. The website Variousways was created a couple of years ago and the design has not changed since then. I recently received an email from someone named “Jack” whom alerted me of the ripp-off. If you look, not only has my splash page been ripped, but the whole flash. Naturally, they just plopped in their logo and changed some of their content, but without a doubt they completely ripped the site. | |||
 And to add insult to injury… If you look at their source code in the meta information. Coloritstudio left their name as “owner”, but still left MY Name as author and MY Email address (The Variousways Email Address) in the email. Something they must of forgot to change while downloading my index file.Wait…it gets better…If you look closely at their link to the css file, They are STILL linking to the css file on variousways.com server. I am just amazed at the audacity. If imitation is the greatest form of flattery, what is duplication? |
