68. Rob: Hello. I hope you’re well. I just
wanted to drop you a line and introduce
myself. I’m a blogger myself (I contribute
to Confirm Them and Human Events’
blogs among others), but for my day
job—I do online public affairs for Wal-
Mart, working with Mike Krempasky
who runs Redstate.com.
Just wanted you to know that your post
taking notice of “Why Wal-Mart Works”
was noticed here and at [Wal-Mart’s]
headquarters in Bentonville.

70. Hi Danny,
I’m working with Aaron Strout and Greg Verdino
from Powered, Inc. on Greg’s new book,
microMARKETING: Get Big Results by Thinking and
Acting Small, and they thought that you would be a
perfect fit to do one of the chapter-by-chapter
reviews.
Because of your experience using the Internet and
new media to raise money, in addition to your work
with large companies like IBM, FedEx, and RIM,
Chapter 7, “From Reach to Relationships: Activating
the Many by Resonating with the Right Few,”
seemed like it would resonate well with your
audience.

72. Jim Beam is spending its budget this
year marketing people who exhibit the
brand persona, not the brand itself.
We’ve found an initial group of people
who exhibit true character, integrity,
perseverance through struggle, etc, and
we’re helping them because it’s the
right thing to do. We’re walking the
talk. One such subject is even a
comedy troupe you might enjoy called
Summer of Tears. Good videos.

74. I've had it. I get more than 300 emails a day and
my problem isn't spam, it's PR people. Lazy flacks
send press releases to the Editor in Chief of Wired
because they can't be bothered to find out who on
my staff, if anyone, might actually be interested in
what they're pitching …
I only want two kinds of email: those from people I
know, and those from people who have taken the
time to find out what I'm interested in and
composed a note meant to appeal to that (I love
those emails; indeed, that's why my email address
is public).
Everything else gets banned on first abuse.
—Chris Anderson
76. I’m looking forward to
continuing to send little nuggets
your way. And, as always, we
want this to be a conversation.
So your questions, suggestions
and rants are always welcome
and encouraged.

82. Hey, it’s Seth the Blogger Guy
with AT&T. I’m here to talk a
little about our network, where
it stands now, and a bit about
where it’s going.
