Yep, only a couple months after the iPhone 4S release debacle, the iPhone 5 rumors are surfacing everywhere throughout the techno world. It never fails. There’s plenty of rumors concerning the iPhone 5′s specifications, but frankly, I hope they’re wrong on some things. International Business Time reports that Steve Jobs was very involved in the [...]

I think one of the most frustrating experiences I occasionally face as a small business owner is dealing with irate customers. If your business is dealing with many angry customers, then its typically clear you have to make some changes, but at times, its inevitable, you might receive hate mail or lunatic rants. Today, our [...]
Wow, big business is really going all out with expanding Black Friday. First, Cyber Monday then American Express comes up with Small Business Saturday. I’m just upset that I didn’t remember it since I’m proud o be a small business owner. In contrast to Cyber Monday, Small Business Saturday was originally intended to promote brick [...]

Part of the company’s campaign for the holidays entailed Coke paying homage to the threatened polar bears by switching to all-white cans with silvery bears. Apparently, Coke has decided to pull the cans and revert back to the mighty red since they [...]

The company also announced the hiring of former board members Mary Jeffries (as chairman and co-CEO) and Ira Parker (as president and co-CEO). Mary Jeffries was once the CEO of Polaroid, where [...]
Today, I’m reading through articles on CNN and come across one by Matt Rosoff of Business Insider called TV isn’t broken, so why fix it? and I couldn’t believe what I was reading. It’s shameful that this article was found in the “Tech” section and I feel obligated to respond. We all know that I’m [...]
Listen, its already clear that HP doesn’t have the desire to keep WebOS, the mobile/tablet operating system they bought from Palm for over one billion dollars. At that time, purchasing the operating system made sense if HP wanted to enter the mobile arena, but the rise of Android, success of iOS and upcoming Microsoft Windows, [...]
