Facing My Biggest Fear: Improv Comedy
I’ve always been enchanted by great improvisational performers… from the classmates I used to videotape in college, “Rebels Without Applause” to Drew Cary’s “Who’s Line is It Anyway?” I will never forget watching improv live at Second City in Chicago, and even in Amsterdam.

Do You Measure the Impact of Social Media Marketing? Call for Entries.
Yesterday I spoke with a client about the “Holy Grail” of social media. He shared with me some of the secrets he’s reluctant to share at panels and with the media. Seems some of my videos have generated more engagements than horrific media spending and expensive attempts at building branded content series. Then I received…
