Today is the Technology Channel’s Theme day and we’re looking at “green” technologies (I’ll have the round-up post link here when it’s posted). While we might think that tools like RSS (as Juned suggests in his post on RSS as green tech) are truly green, are they really?
Things are a lot better now, in terms […]

It’s a busy time here at b5media. We’re growing, expanding, and gearing up for great stuff. We got word internally last week that Rachel Segal is joining us at b5 media–word is as a marketing honcho–which is very, very cool. I waited until Rachel had made this public before I blabbed–good thing I didn’t have […]

We’re just getting better and better over at b5media. Yesterday marked the début of Vancouver’s Colleen Coplick as the new blogger on BuzzNetworker. Of course this is great for b5 and Colleen, but it’s also a reflection of how Canadians and Vangroovy folks are tuned into social media.
Colleen opened up with an aptly-named post, Introduction, […]

So the Top 25 most valuable blogs, eh? Hmm ….
There is no way to accurately put a value on blogs and blogging companies. All are privately-held and, as is true with many content businesses, the value of the company is based on what a buyer will pay. The figures we have put together look at […]

It’s Sunday. I’ve been here in Austin since (late) Thursday night and wow this is an experience. Yesterday I didn’t catch a single panel, and I didn’t mind at all. The BlogHaus was where people were hanging out and chatting and, well the chances of learning something cool was pretty good.
Today I got up bright […]

It’s morning here in Austin. Why no live blogging from yesterday? Well there wasn’t much to live blog. The sessions didn’t start until 3:30 (because badge pickup started at 10 AM) , I’m told that badge pickup at SXSW is always insane-I wasn’t disappointed, it was long. About an hour. But I have my badge, […]

If all goes according to the (by the seat of my pants) plan I’ll be attending my first SXSWi this week. I’m going to be doing double duty there covering it for b5media (therefore blogging here) and for Intruders Canada (Intruders is sending me there).
I’ll be a little busy I’m guessing, but I think we […]

I’ve kept this under my hat for a while now, but I can finally announce, and very happily I must add, that Joey deVilla is joining b5media as Technical Project Manager. Actually I like how he puts it–”Nerd Wrangler”:
I figured I’d start off the working week with a big announcement: I’ve landed a new […]

So yesterday we had a wee problem with the servers. Okay wee is an understatement. The tech team here (virtually of course), has been working almost non-stop since problems cropped up. The cause? Doesn’t matter. Never does really. It’s how you handle the crisis that matters. You could scream and yell or you can buckle […]
