BROOKLYN TIPPING POINT
2011-11-09 14:27:00
Best-selling Canadian author, Malcolm Gladwell (The Tipping Point), explores the financial factors behind the acquisition of the new Brooklyn Nets--a deal that involves much more than basketball, apparently. The article, published in September for Grantland, points out how factors like the recession, eminent domain, ambitious real estate plans, and wealthy politics are really what were at stake.

The (Xmas) Tipping Point
2009-12-09 14:10:00
Does your doorman/mail carrier/dog walker/barista get one of these in Decmeber? Image courtesy of redjar on flickr.So, as Bill Leff asked me last Saturday, what does one tip at Christmas time? And whom? And why?I can't answer the "why" -- I have no idea how holiday tipping got started, I just know it exists. And if we're tipping one person (doorman, for example), why not tip every person who provides a service? Your pilot who safely flies you to Denver to see Mom for the holidays, or the counter guy at McDonald's who puts extra napkins in your bag? It seems a bit out of hand, really. Some guidelines: Tip or give a holiday gift if:...you feel generous enough, i.e.,...
White Sox Weekend Wrap-up: Tipping Point

The Long Road Towards an ISO 27001 "Tipping Point" (and a true Reader's Pol
2008-07-22 02:00:00
So, in conversations with customers of late, I've observed a steady increase in talk of plans to soon adopt ISO 27002, or active work to get the standard implemented in some fashion. This isn't necessarily surprising, particularly when you're talking with highly regulated companies or those more apt to understand information risk management, overall (e.g., those in banking, insurance and utilities, or more recently, thanks to PCI DSS, retail). Because, as I suspect most would agree (and speak up if you don't!), 27002 provides an incredibly broad and deep view into the types of security controls an organization should at least consider when building a security and information risk management program. What has certainly come as more of a surprise, though, is...

Tipping Point? Even Keel?
2008-05-11 07:08:00
I'm not sure what it is. I am either okay with the present state of things in my life, or I am on the verge of collapse. It could be one or the other.It could be neither and instead be nestled somewhere in that infinite array of greys between extremes. I'm not good with the shades of grey, though. I seem to prefer throwing myself out onto one ledge or the other.I suppose that I could just stop thinking about which it is and go on with getting myself cups of coffee and meeting work deadlines and knitting the partners to the lonely, single arm warmers I've created, but that would be dull. It feels like waiting without knowing that there's anything to wait for.It might just be I that am less than dynamic lately.Maybe that's it. Maybe I am standing at the midpoint on a seesaw, waiting to see which way I'll tip.I could never do that as a child. Stand at the midpoint on a seesaw, that is. Other kids did it, and they'd balance for awhile like they were surfing before making the b...

The Tipping Point is Gone
2008-04-16 23:21:00
There has been a lot of talk about how social media has reached the tipping point and has been accepted as a valid method to market by the so called "early majority." Certainly, I've noticed in my business development discussions that senior marketers have gone from at best ignoring and at worst denigrating social media as a valuable arrow in the marketing quiver to almost demanding that it be included in any PR strategy developed. All in a few months and sometimes the same people!It's roughly the same pattern I experienced back in the 1990's around the adoption by business of the web itself. First, ignoring, then mockery, then a mad scramble to "get something up!" There were a lot of crap websites developed and a lot of scam "online agencies" that took advantage. Then, as now, early majority type marketers needed to stop, take a breath and think through the purpose of this new medium, how best to use it and when.Joining the conversation of an active, ongoing community of intere...

Tipping Point - How much is enough?
2008-03-12 14:39:00
Having grown up in Australia and now living in America, it is always interesting to note the subtle difference in cultures between the two countries. One clear example is when it comes to "tipping". This is how a tip is defined : "A small monetary amount left to show appreciation for a service rendered  above the norm".  In America the standard tip is 15-20% of the bill, In Australia it is normally 1-!0%. The reason for the difference in tipping standards between America and most countries is due to the fact that American workers in the services sector are paid close to minimum wage (around $A7 per hour), whereas in other countries the minimum wage is much higher (In Australia it is about $A14). So the low minimum wage in America is justification for the large tipping component. In the restaurant and many other service based business, workers make more than half their wages from tips. I am not against tipping, in fact after being here for one year the ...

Tipping Point on Impeachment is ApproachingTipping Point on Impeachment is
2008-01-04 09:26:00
by Dave Lindorff Way back in October of 2005, when the publisher of St. Martin's Press contacted my agent and asked if I would do a book on impeaching President Bush, I remember thinking it was a wacky, if interesting, idea. Certainly almost nobody was talking about it. Not in the media, not in Congress, and not even at the occasional anti-war march. I took the job (who's going to turn down a decent advance?), but had in mind a book written with a light touch — a sense of humor — figuring that as evil as the Bush/Cheney regime was, there was also much to laugh at. In short order, though, things got serious. There was the "Scooter" Libby investigation into the admiinistration's outing of CIA operative Valerie Plame, and James Risen's belated story in the New York Times about the administration's illegal NSA spying operation on American citizens. And late that year, Rep. John Conyers, the minority leader on the House Judiciary Committee, issued a report (later a boo...

Guinness Ad- Tipping Point
2007-11-11 17:25:00
Nicolai Fuglsig, the man behind the Sony Bravia "balls" ad, has released Tipping Point this weekend in the UK, his latest creation, and the most expensive Guinness ad to date. Brand Republic covers the story in Guinness to debut £10m domino toppling ad: Fuglsig said the work was his most challenging experience to date, and involved around 1,000 people from the Salta region of northern Argentina, who had no previous experience of working on camera. The domino toppling series was created by the world record-breaking group, Domino Domain, and took two days to construct.Around 6,000 dominoes were used for the ad, around 10,000 books, 400 tyres, six cars and 45 wardrobes, while 24 hours of footage was captured despite the dominoes taking just 14 seconds to topple. Fuglsig said: "Shooting this was the biggest challenge of my career to date. It was a really tough job -- from the remote high altitude location to having to frequently reset thousands of props, as well as working with hundreds...

The Tipping Point for the Reds
2007-11-02 05:35:00
Although we've nicked some points along the way, we've had a diabolical run of performances lasting several games. Ignoring much of the media nonsense about the 'R' word being responsible, when it was really due to a lack of confidence or motivation in the squad, I've felt that all it would take would be a couple of good games for us to get our form back.Tomorrow night we've got a pretty big game with Blackburn who are a point ahead of us. I hope last weeks game against Arsenal does prove to be our Tipping Point and that the hunger the lads showed will carry over and hopefully result in us winning against Blackburn, that could prove to be the result which restores confidence in the side ! If the Arse draws ManUre that would also bring us that bit closer to the top this weekend ;-)

Malcolm Gladwell: The Tipping Point, Blink and the TED Conference
2007-09-27 20:28:00
I first got turned on to Malcolm Gladwell by hearing his name among other VC Blogs. My first encounter was when I picked up his latest book: Blink: The Power of Thinking Without Thinking. Having read Blink first, I may have spoiled the effect of reading that book that he his most famous for: The Tipping Point: How Little Things Can Make a Big Difference. Luckily, I was able to find a copy sitting next to Blink on the best seller rack. I may be behind the times only finishing it now - it being first published in 2004. However, fret not, for it is still a prudent and powerful explanation of successful businesses, products and social networks in the world of Web 2.0 - beautiful in its simplicity. For those who haven't read The Tipping Point, the idea is a comparison of the successes in business to the spread of a disease epidemic. Think of a common flu virus that hangs around going from person to person, remaining in equilibrium in its contagiousness. But then something happen...
