I finally upgraded my iPhone 8 Plus to an iPhone 12. While the upgrade is a significant overhaul, it doesn’t feel like a major change. It’s practically the same phone with the same apps. I copied over the previous iPhone data, making it feel like the same device. I am still using the same apps,…
I often read about freedom from a 9-to-5 job. While most of these folks tell you to pursue a startup, have a side hustle, or start freelancing. They don’t realize you don’t have to leave your 9-to-5; you have to leave the traditional 9-to-5 requirements. As companies are going fully remote, the one I am…
I recently got an invite for Clubhouse, and I discovered how to access Twitter Spaces. Both have apps have the same concept. Each offers open rooms for anyone to talk about current events or around any topic that you could imagine. Clubhouse is currently iOS only, plus it requires an invite. Twitter Space is still…
I’m always sharing screenshots! They’re often quick screenshots of a graph on Google Analytics or something on a web page that I want to share with a friend or client. They’re not pretty or appealing. Now, not all screenshots have to be special. Sometimes though, I want to make something I share pop. I’ve tried…
I don’t think anyone could’ve predicted what would happen over 2020. I wrote in the 2019 recap that “I didn’t want to set any lofty goals.” Best choice ever! Instead of doing the standard recap, goal setting, and resolution for 2021, I am adopting Yearly Themes. I first discovered Yearly Themes from the Cortex podcast….
I finally caved and joined the Notion bandwagon. I first found out about Notion via ProductHunt in late 2018. Then I started playing with the app in early 2019. At the time, I used Bear for note-taking on my Mac. I also heavily used Google Docs, Sheets, & Slides. All the docs were organized in…

I am working with a client to launch a Google Ads course via WordPress. I am tasked with not only marketing the course but also building the course. I decided to develop the course website myself, doing it all with No-Code. All in Total, building a fully functioning WordPress-based course, costs around $700 for all…
My first introduction with the Oura Ring came from Kevin Rose – the founder of Digg, and later went on to found Zero Fasting. Kevin recommended Oura Ring to his newsletter readers back in Aug 2017. At the time, the Ring was bulky and much larger. It was the first version of the Ring. Then…
The most consequential conversation online these days is around privacy. How do users consent to be tracked? What information should companies and brands collect on users? As a marketer, I have used Google Analytics and other fairly invasive tracking tools. I see daily the amount of data collected from the user by Google. The data…
Welcome to the newsletter! The first edition in the reboot, at least. I’ve done a personal newsletter in the past, where I shared exciting stories and recapped what I wrote around the web. This reincarnation will share a similar base but include topical updates on what’s happening. This means, I won’t keep a monthly schedule…
