An Interview with Ben Parr, Co-Editor of Mashable on Entrepreneurship, TechCrunch, and Getting Bought out

The Web is filled with blogs on almost every topic. Tech blogs specifically are a dime a dozen, but there is the elite group of tech outlets that truly stand out from the crowd, Mashable leads the pack. Started by Pete Cashmore in his garage in Ireland, it is not ranked as one of, if not the top tech blog on the interwebs. As a person who has guest blogged for Mashable a few times, I can safely say they deserve the popularity.

 

An Interview with Alyssa Milano: Actress, Philanthropist, Entrepreneur, and Twitter Superstar

As a blogger, there are a few very defining moments. This is one of those moments. An interview with Alyssa Milano. Where do I start? Alyssa is one of the few actresses who, as funny as might sound, transcends generations. What I mean is that while I grew up watching Saved by the Bell, my older brother grew up watching the Love Boat (he is ten years older than me), yet we both had crushes on Alyssa Milano growing up. I mean, who did not watch the show “Who’s the Boss”?

 

An Interview with Mike McCue, the Genius Behind Flipboard

There are hundreds of thousands of mobile apps across all the various platforms, but there is only one Flipboard.

Exclusive Interview with Richard Barley: Community Manager of Tweetdeck

Working as Community Manager for a company with millions of users is not a simple task. You need to walk the fine line of being overly professional and therefore boring, and on the flip side, too personal and amateurish. Richard Barley, the Community Manager of Tweetdeck does this perfectly. Anyone who has ever had a question about Tweetdeck knows they can ask him on Twitter and except a response within seconds. Richard keeps his audience interested and displays a high level of professionalism in his work.

 

An Interview with Guy Kawasaki: The Man Who Made Apple “Cool”

Since I have been using Twitter, I have had the unique privilege of connecting with some seriously amazing people. Now I say “unique” because if not for Twitter, I would never have come across these individuals who enhance my life daily and on so many levels. One of these people is Guy Kawasaki, who besides having one of the coolest names in the industry is also one of the most important people in tech.

 

I Failed. Again.

I hereby announce a new trend. Failure. So many events talking about how entrepreneurs failed. Every interviewer now asks about your biggest failures. It’s a thing. Failure. But how many of us really embrace our failures. How many of us are ashamed by our failures and how many of us actually capitalize on them to learn lessons? Well, I know it took me a while to write this post and even as I write these words, I’m not 100% convinced that I will publish it.
