Snowmageddon 2009 – will any of us survive?

Last February my friend Doug and I created the “Snowmageddon” Twitter meme over our morning coffee.

The conversation was something like, “People are really freaking out about this storm. Let’s name it and get a top Twitter trend.” Then we laughed. Then we tweeted. Then we blogged. Then we created a logo and live Web [...]

New Addition to the Porridge Line-up

We added a new band member to the Porridge line-up last week.

When I called my Dad down in Florida to tell him the baby was here, I could hear Led Zeppelin’s “D’yer Mak’er” blaring in the background. I think that’s a good sign the expanded roster is going to take us all very far. [...]

On a panel at a Minnesota Interactive Marketing Association (MIMA) event this Wednesday, July 16 at 6 p.m. at the lovely International Market Square in Minneapolis.

The panel is titled “Too Much Information? Surviving Data Overload,” and promises to be very educational. I’m planning to learn more than anyone.

From MIMA’s event description:

Perfect Porridge featured at Punch Pizza

A photo I entered in the Punch Pizza photo contest made it as a finalized and was blogged about today. It may be link bait, but I’m falling for it.

We enjoyed the activity captured in the kitchen and how the oven at night is framed as the center of attention.  The oven in this pizzeria [...]

I bet you $5 dollars you played Guitar Hero this week
