by Greg

I love images and great, clean design. But there’s so much power in what you say…and how you say it.

Great video/ad. Great marketing lesson and why content is so important:

Allison’s Restaurant, Crofton, Maryland

by Greg

 

Just finished up a website for my brother-in-law’s restaurant… Allison’s Restaurant. It’s built on WordPress, so they’ll be able to manage their own content, update their menus, write-up their own specials and list events.

If you live in Maryland or the greater DC area, I highly recommend you check them out.

New Hampshire.

It’s quite an old photo. In fact, it’s shot with black and white film using my Pentax K-1000. (Which I still use.)

I developed the film in a dark room, but of course wonder what  it’d look like if it was digital — and pulled into Photoshop.

Not only do I find his first piece extremely creative — the way he successfully merges jazz, banjos, a “Motown-style” horn, synthesizers, wild electric guitar riffs — but the way he’s releasing his album is a first.

He’s giving away one song at a time every Monday for ten weeks via Facebook, Twitter and YouTube. No physical product to buy. Each song is free for listening and sharing via social media.

Although sometimes I honestly [...]

The Real Passion of Johnny and Steve…

by Greg

I didn’t grow up knowing much about Johnny Cash or country music.

For me it was Led Zeppelin. The Rolling Stones. Queen. The Doobie Brothers. Then of course the 80′s music we might all want to forget.

To me, Johnny Cash and country was a southern thing. Not for a hick who grew up in the woods of New England.

When I left my sales and marketing job in 2003 to go out on my own and “use my hands,” I went to [...]

Mike Rowe on Dirty Jobs
(and Using Your Hands)

by Greg

It’s worth taking the time to watch this video of Mike Rowe (Dirty Jobs) and about “real” work.

“We’ve declared war on work…the way we portray working people on TV, plumbers…on Madison Ave.”

Great talk.
