Quick Picks

Will broadcasters respond
to The Market as quickly
as the individual user?

How does this impact their budgets?  
Hiring decisions?  

Will it be possible to create
and re-create cinema verite
on a consistent basis?  

Will the ending
of every show be
determined by vote
a la American Idol?  

And how will this business model
compare to the O model as developed
by her network talk show, satellite radio
and new network?  

The networks have long followed
Nielsen or other marketing research
whereas the O model follows The Path.

Authenticity via self help,
forgiveness, open hearts leading to
higher ratings.

There are a billion and one reasons
that employees are terminated,
none of which have anything to do
with temperament or competence.

Noncompliance
is a GREAT reason
to be terminated.

Too many follow blindly
without using any sort
of moral compass.

In any case,
hiring is about finding
the right fit.

Hiring officials
should never presume
the abandoned culture
was a healthy one.

Smoke and Mirrors

Is this a return to
the original packaging?

Why not sell a bundle
tied with string?

Considering the price
increases associated
with logos, lettering,
colors, glossy paper...

Will the price decrease
if they are handed to me
in a paper bag?

Packaging matters
less than access.

What if the industry
went back to supplying
a shredded mound
to be hand-wrapped later?

Is there any research on that?
