March 20, 2014 by Chris Trayhorn, Publisher of mThink Blue Book

Facebook is in the process of pulling the biggest bait-and-switch in history. They have spent years persuading umpteen brands, businesses and boy-bands that the best way to invest Internet marketing dollars was to build up huge numbers of Facebook "Likes". A big Facebook fan-following, we were told, was the key to social marketing success. Well, now they've got you hooked, and … [Read more...]

39 April Fool's Day Hoaxes By Google

March 31, 2010 by Chris Trayhorn, Publisher of mThink Blue Book

Last year Google ran no less than 17 different April Fool's Day hoaxes. I have always loved that a company that has so much on its plate takes the time to differentiate itself and build some positive brand equity by investing humor.

Google Kills Twitter

February 10, 2010 by Chris Trayhorn, Publisher of mThink Blue Book

Google killed Twitter today. With the launch of Google Buzz they ruthlessly attacked Twitter’s weaknesses and quietly set the scene for subsequent creeping infiltration into Microsoft’s stronghold in the enterprise market. Buzz is a big deal. Google’s Buzz is presented as a simple rival to Twitter. It shows up discreetly as a tab in Gmail, will play nicely … [Read more...]

Avoid the Blog Drivel

January 1, 2008 by artkade

I degraded myself as a content publisher twice last week. In both cases, after reviewing my Google Alerts and picking the day's hot news item, I wrote a blog entry that included a quote, a few inane comments about the topic and a link back to the original post.It's a technique commonly used by bloggers to drive traffic to their sites through backlinks. Indeed, some bloggers use … [Read more...]

Rexanne Mancini: The Free Thinker

Mancini says she thought the Internet was the wave of the future and wanted a way to connect and be part of it.

The Affiliate Lifestyle

July 1, 2007 by Chris Trayhorn, Publisher of mThink Blue Book

For many aspiring affiliates, the phrase Affiliate Lifestyle conjures up visions of big beautiful homes and shiny new sports cars.

Those images often include a … [Read more...]

Stop the Presses

March 1, 2007 by Chris Trayhorn, Publisher of mThink Blue Book

Prepare the obituary: The era of the daily newspaper as the news source is over. The Daily Tribune, Inquirer and Journals of the world have been recycled, replaced by multi-platform (online and off-line) entities that engage readers and operate around the clock. This rebirth is good news for advertisers big and small who will be able to more effectively target a growing … [Read more...]

Judi Moore: The Leaper

March 1, 2007 by Chris Trayhorn, Publisher of mThink Blue Book

Judi Moore is not a super-affiliate. She's not even sure what that is. She doesn't see this as a detriment. Being an affiliate is also not her first career. In fact, at 52 years old, she's had a lifetime of work in the corporate world - in about three industries, she says - only to land back in her home state of Illinois, with six grown kids, husband No. 2, a Schnauzer and a … [Read more...]

Online Is Sweet

January 1, 2007 by Chris Trayhorn, Publisher of mThink Blue Book

Food has recently been called everything from the new theater to the new porn. Regardless of how you think about food, you certainly can't avoid it.
