We talk about Medium, Microsoft, Mobile Publishing, and my Michigan State License plate. It might be a stretch, but I do say words like rank juice and ass to make up for it. Enjoy.

I had a great coffee conversation this week and it made me think about internal influencers and how literally ANYONE can raise the office average. You should be doing that.

So, I drank some energy drinks and then recorded episode 5. The good news is I got through it much quicker. That bad news is that I might be talking REALLY fast. You tell me.  In this episode we hit on the future of paper and books and how context of the data plays a role. We also hit on selfies, lifehacking, and a little more on ad blocking.Links:Engadget on ebook and book salesConnectedly on what your smartphone is replacingMashable on selfie deathsEverything is Marketing Episode 111
