Defending Michael Jackson. Industry insider’s info about Jackson’s personal life.

July 8th, 2009 · No Comments

michael jackson off the wall

For those of you who want to hear that Michael Jackson never molested any children, you should read this as it will make you feel better. Personally I would like to know, but I can’t preach one way or the other, i can only present you what facts I find. Growing up, we had a ’singing machine’ which was pre-karaoke, but had 8-tracks with various Beatles and Michael Jackson songs on it but WITH VOCALS REMOVED. I wish I still had those 8-tracks, and if I can find any I’ll check to see how they sounded, like were they the original masters with vocals muted? or were they just eq’d in a way that the vocals were not audible? – that’s one for my guitars blog!

MAN IN THE MIRROR by Moses Avalon

Who would have thought that Jackson would be outlived by Keith Richards or Ozzy Osbourne in a drug related fatality?
Now, there are far more pressing things that will effect our community more than Jackson’s passing.  We have an industry in transition and money is falling off the table in every direction.  We need to focus on that.  But I can not ignore the many emails I’ve received asking me to comment on Michael’s death.   Plus, I have to admit, that I am moved by this event. I grew up with Jackson’s music and as a producer and engineer I was asked to get that “Jackson sound” by many clients.

So, here goes.

Over my 30 years in the music business I’ve worked, briefly, with or for more than one member of the Jackson camp.  I never met Michael directly.  What I know of him personally is filtered through my interactions with both “his people” and Sony as a consultant/journalist and one of his siblings whose album I worked on back in the 1980s.   So, my connection to him was nothing great but I did get insight through social osmosis.   I’ll share:

CNN, meet facebook. Twitter, thanks for the idea

July 7th, 2009 · No Comments

Okay, well I knew some interesting new uses of social media would be in effect, and here we go again, how’s this: FACEBOOK + CNN vs. TWITTER (Due to the Michael Jackson Memorial Service today at Staples Center in Los Angeles) – > Starts at 1:30pm Eastern Time -Just Updated-Live link below.

Facebook’s status, where you update your ’status’ about this event and leave the ’share with everyone watching’ box checked will essentially send out short ‘micro-blogging style’ updates in your ‘update stream’.

Right, you mean TWEETs.cnn facebook live obama michael jackson CNN, meet facebook. Twitter, thanks for the idea

Either way it works. Here you can watch CNN.com’s LIVE where people are LIVE TWEETING, well, using Facebook Status updates right on here. People are dropping links, self promoting, talking shit about Michael Jackson’s nose, praising him, and the whole nine yards with zero moderation:

Here are some examples including talk of him being a child molester:

The star of polling… lets do some polls people! Linkedin vs Facebook?

July 6th, 2009 · No Comments

Okay, so I used to use PollStar all the time for looking up concerts. (if this works I’ll do some more about guitars, such as which guitar brands people like better than others an other different interesting choices people may have opinions about on PPC Management ideas, etc. COMPLETELY unrelated I wanted to start getting some polls together to get a consensus of some of the interesting questions of today, that maybe there is no real answer or right answer to.

So here we go. Lets poll.

http://polls.linkedin.com/poll-results/46358/xrxph

Linkedin Poll vs Facebook The star of polling... lets do some polls people! Linkedin vs Facebook?

I made a poll on Linkedin to see 1) how many people would actually participate and 2) what kind of responses I would get to a poll about using Linkedin and/or Facebook as separate networks for fun and for business.

And of course…here is the Michael Jackson, what’s your favorite song poll:

My Next Car – Electric – and FAST. New TESLA Funding from US Government / Obama

Tesla Motors Gets Funding From Obama Cnn My Next Car   Electric   and FAST. New TESLA Funding from US Government / Obama

I’ve been watching Tesla Motors for some time now. Being in California so close to their first dealership in Santa Monica has kept me anxiously waiting to see when these cars will be in production. The ‘ROADSTER’ by Tesla Motors is an Electric Car.

Tesla Roadster My Next Car   Electric   and FAST. New TESLA Funding from US Government / Obama
Check it out:

So without getting really political, it would seem to me that the previous administration was more about making money from oil, and the current administration doesn’t have that goal, thus has seen the ‘light’ and rather than bailing out every auto maker they are going to help fund new initiatives such as Silicon Valley’s Tesla Motors who now have already gone to market with their Roadster which has ZERO torque and is (so i’ve heard) faster than a Lambourghini. Ahh, but can I drive it in the carpool lane? it has zero emissions….officer?

Webmaster Tools Redesigned – May 12th, 2009

May 13th, 2009 · No Comments

If you haven’t logged in to your Google Webmaster tools accounts yet today, you will soon see that there have been massive changes.

My SEO team at Wpromote was wondering why we weren’t seeing much in the way of ‘Top Search Queries’ the past week and reason being, Google just rolled out a new slicker version of Webmaster Tools. See the video about it:

Obviously there will be a lot more updates soon, this was just the beginning of the new changes to come, however I like some of the new features already, such as being able to assign an email address that is NOT the one you log in with.

Till next time SEO Rockstars and Twitter Ninjas….

What IS spam. Is aggregating News also spam? at what point is it good or bad if its news? I wonder. I guess if it is not done manually then there is a chance that it will end up appearing spammy when something is either truncated or repeated… like the top part of this post which is pulled in from an aggregate link set up for me. Hmm. I post things to draft that way, to avoid it appearing spammy…also must adjust facebook settings to avoid ’spamming facebook’ with blog posts that are currently imported as ‘notes’.
