Marketing that will start a conversation!
Hi, I’m Janis. I’m not JUST Jordan’s younger sister.
I figure I've been too quiet for too long. It's time to introduce myself. I'm Janis. Nice to meet you. You'll be hearing a lot more from me here at Tell Ten Friends in the next little while.
I've been busy lately. I've been interning at AdHack, a BootUpLabs company, which shares an office floor with Strutta, who Jordan works for. Secondly, I have been collaborating on a few Tell Ten Friends proje...

Dusting Off the Runners for Cancer
My sister was the one that issued the challenge.
After announcing on Twitter that she and my mom had signed up for the Sun Run, the trash talk began. It didn’t take long for my brother and I to respond to the taunting, and then I upped the stakes. So presently, four members of my immediate family are prepping to run the Sun Run on May 3rd. And since I am confident that I will cross the line a...
Help Build a Web Ad Case Study
My friends from Adhack.com have just launched a new campaign called “Show us Your Balls.”
The campaign is meant to draw attention to their “People Powered Ads” services for ad creators and ad buyers, ad what better way to do that than with a campaign of their own. The best part is, they’re letting everyone get involved. Here is a more detailed description of the promotion, includi...
Platform Cage Match: Tumblr vs. Soup vs. OnSugar vs. Storytlr
We’re taking a closer at several personal “life stream” platforms, in a effort to discover which offers the best options and features, based on my own set of criteria.
I explained the problem that spawned this little experiment in a previous post on my personal blog, but I’ll sum it up again here briefly. As an online marketer, photographer, “micro-blogger,” and multi-media hobbyist...
What Does Beta Mean?
Please Note: This item is cross-posted from the Strutta blog (my day job). I felt that it was relevant enough to post here as well, as it documents some of the process of launching and marketing a software product, from my perspective.
Last night we received a question from a Strutta user via the contact form. He asked, "When are we going to be not beta? Why is there beta anyway?"
As soon as...
The Day of the Long Tail
Posted By: Jordan Behan on July 29, 2006 in Random - Comments: 5 Comments »
I guess I better go out and get myself a copy of “The Long Tail” by Chris Anderson, before they’re all gone.
Found this via Chris Thilk: Day of the Longtail Trailer.
Here it is, in all its YouTube glory:
Later: What the deuce?? It seems I’m having a little trouble embedding a YouTube video here…Instead, here’s a link while I work out the problem.

Plan on picking up a copy myself!
I wouldn’t have a sniff about it if it weren’t for this blog,
for your suggestion, so THANK YOU!

You really should read it. I’m recommending it to everyone who doesn’t run away from me first. Once you do you’ll see what he means when he says, “You begin to see Long Tails everywhere.” Great stuff.
I’ll be picking it up, for sure. As it is, I’m throwing around that term like I own it, and I have yet to even read the book.
I’m just getting to the end of “Naked Conversations” by Scoble and Israel, so Long Tail will have to be the next on my list.
You’ll get through LTail fast; Anderson presents a lot of info. but in a sensitive, organized manner…you’re through 5 chapters before you look up. Worth checking out his blog too (www.longtail.com). And you can always check out the original Long Tail article from Wired from a year or so ago (just google it).
I’ll have 2 more to recommend but they won’t be published ’til Spring.
Happy reading.
iWag
do you?
