The first season of Dragon’s Den Canada was painful (my friend Sean Wise is heavily involved in the show, so I gave it every chance I could!). There were only a half dozen deals done the entire first season.
I basially gave up 4 shows in.
They renewed the show, though, and the second season is underway now, […]
This post by Ed Sutherland reminded me that I hadn’t blogged about b5media’s latest addition, our Advisory Board, yet!
Rick announced the change last week while I was in NYC propositioning midgets.
Why an Advisory Board?
Before I go into the specific members of our AB, I thought I’d talk a bit about why I wanted an AB […]
Alright, my conference schedule for the rest of the year is firmed up, and here she be (if you feel I’m missing one, let me know!):
November 5-7: ad:tech, NYC
I attend ad:tech every year. Typically the sessions are rubbish, the show floor is alright, and the business development is fantastic. With me will be Chad Randall, […]
To readers: Yes, yes, a REAL blog post. Hold your applause, cause this’ll probably be the only one this month!
Based on Beth Comstock’s remarks earlier this week, the web has been all afroth with news about how ad-supported startups are going to die because, to quote Beth
There are not going to be enough advertising dollars […]
Just a quick note, as I prep to head into the wilds of Scotland, the video of my session at WordCamp is now up!

Earlier this week Loren decided to take a swipe at b5media. A totally unjustified swipe and one for which I was completely unprepared…
See for yourself:
Totally unjustified. So, given that he’s been whining lately about people not responding to him, we did a response video. Also, totally unjustified ;-)
Response video is below.
And […]
I’m not sure when this issue of unionizing bloggers became a mainsteam issue (seeing as how, even in the sphere where the idea started it’s basically universally derided), but it’s taken on enough steam that I feel I need to provide some perspective on it (especially as the discussion has shifted to network “owners”).
Good context […]
TechCrunch is all confused by it. Others have basically jumped on it saying it’s about time someone did local delivery of food (which I agree with, in Toronto we had Grocery Gateway and I was a huge user).
However, I believe the reason Amazon is doing this has nothing to do with food. Food simply pays […]
Last month, when we announced the Music Channel, b5media got exposure amongst a whole other crowd of reader that had never really heard of us before or, if they had, had no real concept of what we did, why we did it or how we did it. As a result, there were numerous posts around […]
Been awhile since I’ve done a b5media jobs post, figured it was about time since we put up a list of jobs on the WordCamp job board and everything!
So, our current positions, the brief braindump descriptions and recommended/required locations are:
Server Ninja: This is a key opening, and an immediate opening. We need someone with substantial […]
