Chris Abraham Internet Stategist: You need 1000x more followers on Twitter

Chris Abraham Internet Stategist: Don’t blame Marissa Mayer if you’re photo business sucks wind
Shooters are a bunch of over-sensitive wusses. I shot stock from 1983-2003 (for The Stock Market which became Corbis and for Pacific Stock) and people were saying that stock was the death of professional photography, or digital was or the Internet was or ...

I think “realness” is what’s required in online communications, just realness according to protocol. One cannot be rude. One cannot be uncouth. One should be tonally perfect when it comes to communicating online but don’t let that ...

You can spread your work and/or content over multiple platforms, languages, cultures, etc, but you’re going to need to customize it in the way your target market expects. Case-in-point: I saw WALL-E in a Berlin Cinema in Germany. The movie was made ...

I am so sorry if I made all of this sound treacherous — it is beautiful more than treacherous; and, if you go in with a good heart and not like a carpet-bomber, you’ll be embraced, especially if you can convey what you’re doing there, wh...

I love that second story. Yes, my buddy from central PA calls it a “slice” or a “cheese slice” — the basic slice is a cheese slice to him. It took me forever to adopt it, though people understood also when I said, “I wo...

We might be from a tribe we don’t like, appreciate, or identify with — so we go out looking for another tribe — and the Internet makes that easier and easier and easier. We can now create meta or self-selected tribes. Look at Austin, TX,...
