The camera truck guy

March 9, 2009

Some years ago, I worked at a design shop here in Richmond, VA that primarily focused on museum exhibit design. The average stay of any employee there was roughty six months.

From what I understood of the article, it was specifically refering to internet searches. I’d love to find out more about their research.

My RSS reader had let itself get a bit full and as I was skimming titles… then I see one on Seth Godin’s Blog labeled “My tooth doesn’t hurt“. I stopped at this one. Seth talks about how when your tooth doesn’t hurt, which I hope is most of the time, you aren’t looking for [...]
