Getting Twitter followers is an interesting game. SEO experts will say that the follow method is key, but in my experience this is a step above spamming. In fact, many people of Twitter look more to the Follow v. Followed ratio as an indication of someone’s value than how many people [...]

What to Do When Your iPhone Only Works on Speakerphone?!?!?
So at first I thought it might be pocket lint. You know, a nice good ball of blue and white lint that got stuck in the earphone jack, but after troubleshooting with the help of many websites and YouTube videos (like the one below), I realized we had a bigger problem here than I thought. [...]

Taking Control of Your System Start Up
This is not a topic I really know about. How often do you hear someone start with that? The reason I am even including this short post is to show the value of blogging.
While at the Association of Corporate Counsel’s Annual Meeting in Boston a friend and colleague of mine, Eugene Weitz, former corporate counsel [...]

Where Do They Find the Time?
Clay Shirkey, author of “Here Comes Everybody,” posted this great article in 2008 explaining the phenomenon of social media. It’s not a primer about Facebook or why people should use Linkedin or how lawyers can benefit from being on Martindale-Hubbell Connected (shameless plug), rather he talks about how traditional media folks still don’t really get [...]

Synergy – My New Holy Grail

Pimp My iMac – setting up the home office in Jerusalem
Today was a major step forward in our Aliyah (move to Israel): I opened up the card table, pulled in a chair from the kitchen, and set up a home office in the spare bedroom. Being the ridiculous tech-head I am, I was not just satisfied with putting out my Bezeq wireless router, Vonage phone, [...]

Apple Mail – Is there a better way?
I like to give all things Apple a try, but I must admit, Apple Mail has been very disappointing. Yes, it can aggregate different mail accounts (still haven’t figured out how to get work Outlook in there), and it has a cool sound effect with a paper airplane graphic when mail gets sent out, but [...]

Kippa Man: Making Me the First Custom Apple Logo Kippa in Israel
Skullcaps, lids, yarlmakes, or kippas, whatever you call the head covering we observant Jews wear, one thing is for certain: if custom, knitted ones (“sroogies”) are your thing there is no better place than Kippa Man to get yours made. Located conveniently in the Shuk in Jerusalem, they have tons of pre-made designs to [...]
