Stephen Colbert takes on Wikipedia and discusses his vision for a new "Wikiality," where the masses create the facts they want to believe in. In the segment, Colbert instructs his harry and david gift baskets audience to find the Wikipedia entry on elephants, and edit it to say that "the original hawaiiana gifts collectibles keepsakes
number of elephants has tripled in the last six months." Not surprisingly, that call to action took down the site temporarily and caused Wikipedia to lock down 20 elephant related Wikipedia pages. A great reality hack from the grand master of reality hacks, Stephen Colbert. |

I've started email gift cards prototyping Business breakfast gift baskets Filter last summer and it launched in October 2005. And while I have taken a few days off here and there, it's time to take a real vacation for a few weeks. So until August 22 I'm going to force myself not to blog. This will be really, really weird for me. You see, personalize gift basket
now I instinctively blog as if I'm a rat in a maze.
So, rather than blogging until my paws bleed as Skinner's rats would do, I'm going to take Stephen Baker's advice and turn off the computer...go outside.
This crazed groomsmen wedding gifts
rat illustration is by none other than James Kraus, the official Business Filter illustrator, who also happens to host a great radio show on WZBC 90.3 on Fridays from 10am-12pm. So please do tune in.
But even as I write this, I'm twitching to spend a few more hours and blog about these items, which I never got to today:
Like how Salesforce has evolved (over 20 versions) to be a Web Office platform
or art that changes to match the mood of the person who is looking at it
or the incredible disappearing gift baskets for mom sysadmin
or whether long lines at Starbucks are hurting its stock price
There's Mark Hurst on how the "Wow Factor" is not what keeps people coming back to websites
And even, how having a bad day can affect performance at work
But I won't.
However, I will post what people have been sending me and talking to me about this week:
Boston.com and The Boston Globe have been very responsive to my posting last week on allowing comments on Da Filta and to the great comments left on the gift baskets for elderly Boston.com Message Board. Saying that they're ready to give it a try, they are currently thwarted from launching comments due to some internal technical issues. But they will keep me posted...and I will keep you birthday flower gift
posted.
Tim Courtney writes in support of my coverage of women on Business Filter, which was questioned web site to sell gift cards by a reader on last Friday's Link Harvest. He works at CDW-G "and one of our magazines, EdTech - Higher Education, just published an article called "No Girls gift subscriptions
Allowed," that features five women CIOs at Boston-area universities.
"Of note bride groom gifts
to me was the tidbit that the number of women employed in the IT industry is decreasing, and a very small percentage of CIO positions are held by women."
Rick Catino writes to say he's started a new business in Amesbury called LeadBridge Partners offering virtual short-term sales service and support to tech companies.
Wikimania is coming to town August 4-6 and I'm bummed I won't be able to make it. I really wanted to attend the Citizen Journalism/Newsblogger session. flowergirl gifts

CEO Ranah Edelin writes to announce the launch of SingShot Media, a new Online Karaoke site. Add that to Bix which I posted about here and that makes two "Web 2.0" gift cards with flower delivery

two startups?
Carole White from isellboston.com writes an great rant about my enthusiasm for Zillow.
"Zillow's aromatherapy gift baskets main goal at this point seems to be to convince members of the press, such as yourself, that it provides accurate home valuations, rather than actually doing it. If you would conduct just a little investigative effort into researching how accurate Zillow's zestimates are, you would find that in most cases they are completely inaccurate. But don't take my word for it, see for yourself.
Here's how: Pick any neighborhood in Boston and find residential home sales that have closed in the past 60 days. Check the actual sales price of these comps against Zillow's value estimate. I've conducted this simple test on over 40 different properties and have found healthy gift baskets that Zillow is rarely accurate--and in some cases grossly inaccurate.
So, I ask you, Maura, how do you arrive at value? By seeing the facts as presented by what the market says value is, or by listening to the Zillow hype spun by a marketeer whose only real concern is increasing Zillow's value. Please check the facts for yourself. It should only take a few minutes of your time. Your reports can only benefit from this experiment and perhaps add real journalistic objective value and integrity to the news."
Carole, you make excellent points and that's probably baby shower gift cards why if I were buying or selling a house today, I would definitely use a broker. But that doesn't detract from Zillow. You're right, it's not a wholly accurate value estimate, it's a zestimate™ - a ball park number. It lets me know if a neighborhood sells in the 600's vs. the 1 million's. And that's way more information theme gift baskets than I had before Zillow, when I had to call and talk to a realtor for the same information.
Today Zillow is the kind of site people noodle around on when they're restaurant gift cards thinking about home values, buying or selling...or when they want to spy on their neighbors. gift baskets in charlotte county florida And Zillow graduation gift ideas
will likely get better over time and acquire better data. They certainly are acquiring the capital. So yes, I still think they give realtors the Zillows.
Tarangini Suresh of TiEBoston checks in and I notice that the TiE has a full schedule of events in August covering topics such as social entrepreneurship and software as services.
Michael Chmura writes that people interested in start-up tips should visit the entrepreneurship blogs from a trio of Babson undergraduate students:
Start-Up Guide By Dan Marques

A Day In The Life Of A New-Age College Entrepreneur By Jason Reuben
Fran Granville writes about baby gift thank you cards the tagline for Business Filter (in the banner at top of the blog), "A Daily Catch of Stories You Don't Want to Miss."
It's a "cache" of articles, not a "catch." This is not baseball. Cache: a place for safekeeping of valuables, a store of goods. I am surprised that the copy editors let you get away with this one.Well, here's what it's supposed to mean. Pretend Business Filter is the net catching the stories - a "daily catch" like catching fish or the daily catch special on a menu. The weekly catch is then rolled up in the paper on Mondays. Perhaps it's not the best metaphor. Perhaps it smells like fish wrapped up in last week's Globe.
And just a few moments ago, I was accused of being anti-Wikipedia by a reader responding to my post about WikiRoasting by Stephen Colbert and The Onion. gift cards printing Actually, I'm a big fan. I even almost attended corporate gifts
