“People don’t live by schedules anymore. Schedules don’t work!”

I’m sitting here at 4:10PM in Hub San Francisco after taking the bus at 6:30AM to the SF Bay (Aquatic Park and Fort Mason on a gloriously crystal clear, hot day in November (!) working all the way. Then I worked at SF City Hall (free wifi–yay) after getting some bureaucracy handled. This is not a typical “schedule”!

“You don’t pay for news, you pay for identity and for being part of a community.”

People crave recognition. And asking them to contribute (like to an online community) is giving them that gift–the gift of recognition.

“Reader interaction: don’t ask what they think, ask what they know.”

Great point! I hadn’t thought of it that way before.

And I love the speed boat analogy.
