The Intersection of Online and Offline

Sometimes, I get to have so much fun in my avocations that I feel guilty.

My latest fun-fest was being able to be part of “Conversations With Chip Griffin.” For those of you who do not know Chip, he is the Chairman of Custom Scoop as well as a self-described “serial entrepreneur.” I think that Chip has so many business ventures HE would be hard-pressed to name them all.

Our topic of discussion was interactive data, or XBRL, something that not a lot of people know about, but a potential technology, that if implemented, could fundamentally change the way that investors get information and make choices as to where to allocate their capital. It sounds like techno-babble, but with Chip, it’s always a fun conversation.

You can listen here.

OK.

Full disclosure.

I am in the tank the for Eaglon Publishing, a la Custom Scoop and Media Bullseye, for whom I occasionally contribute articles. Well fulfilling the vision of the visionaries like Chip Griffin, Steve Bracy, Phil Charles, Sarah Wurrey, and Jen Zingsheim, the print edition is now out. Cool.

It’s a great read, and there are a lot of really smart people who contribute as well; thought leaders like: Chris Brogan, Nathan Burke, Mike Driehorst, Dave Fleet, Susan Getgood, Doug Haslam, Shel Holtz, Lee Hopkins, Kami Huyse, Sandy Kalik, Steve Kayser, Albert Maruggi, Adele McAlear, Ian Muir, Ike Pigott, Chris Thilk, Laura P. Thomas, Rick Turoczy, Lauren Vargas, John Wall, Dan York.

Congratulations, guys. Can’t wait to literally get my hands on one.
