“Pilo” is a typographic debut by Kenneth Pilo, in collaboration with Mårten Fischer, Ray Larabie, and Göran Söderström. The font has evolved from the logo on Pilo’s & posses website bold, a Swedish advertising and design forum where the above mentioned typographers hang out. One day the guys just figured that hey, why not make a real font out of it, and so they did. Now you too can play with the bold font, called “P…

We all get these emails: the link requests. Even if you’re all for paid links, you have to admit that most of the the generic link request emails floating around are a pretty poor investment—permanent links on interior pages with a low, one-time payment. I’ve gotten offers as low as $10 or $20. Rather than reply with “No, thanks, I’ll just keep my eyes open for loose change,” I usually ignore them.

I’ve been more than a casual observer in the current presidential campaign, and I’ve been appalled to see how much of the strategy, left and right, is created by old-school political types, old-fart PR firms, and, well, just old-idea people.

Newspond is a news aggregation site that boasts “No editors. No voting. Just an AI news engine.” Presumably, the lack of voting distinguishes it from sites like Digg and the lack of editing from the Mahalo-like and maybe Slashdot? Does this mean it’s like Ask’s recent news aggregation entry BigNews but with fewer categories? Or maybe it’s like Google News? Or Techmeme?

So you’ve been tasked with building an in-house search marketing team, and now you’re wondering where to start. It’s a daunting task, to be sure. Do you start by rousting the programmers to get the content management system (CMS) into shape? Do you grab a credit card and start up a paid search campaign? Do you start bugging the editorial team to get them to use certain words or phrases, in effect, telling them what to write?

Gates On Yahoo Acquisition: It’s The Engineers We WantCNET reports on Microsoft Chairman Bill Gates’ speech at Stanford University yesterday in which he said that it wasn’t the advertisers, the brand or the traffic so much as the engineers that Microsoft wanted in the Yahoo acquisition. Of course others in the company, including perhaps CEO Steve Ballmer, would…

Choose your weapon:
Power 1.0 = muscle and weapons
Power 2.0 = money, market share, or brain power
Given these choices, most people and companies choose both. However, both Power 1.0 and 2.0 reflect Machievelli’s thinking that it’s better to be feared than loved. Dacher Keltner, professor at U.C. Berkeley, has defined what I would call “Power 3.0″ in an article called “T…

All you horn-rimmed glasses, turtle-neck wearing, T-square wielding, mac-loving, spray-mount stinkin’ arty folk rejoice. There’s a new black in town, which is blacker than black.
The washingtonpost reports that “Black is getting blacker.”
Researchers in New York reported this month that they have created a paper-thin material that absorbs 99.955 percent of the light that hits it, making it by far the darkest substance ever made — about 30 times as dark as the government’s current standard for blackest black.

I’ve adapted the slogan above, borrowed from the original green movement, to apply to the new rules of content and information on and offline.
A lot of people are telling you that content is king, and to a certain degree it is, but your head is swimming and you’re thinking, “how do I create all this content and education based material when I’ve got a business to run? You say I need a blog, newsletter, white papers, podcast, training courses, instructional videos, I mean, how do I get it all done?”

This quote is from an insightful article in The Santa Barbara Independent about how growing up with school shootings has become a defining generational characteristic:
…what is fairly new and somewhat specific to our generation is the extent to which pop culture builds bonds across national and even international boundaries. Since we were seven or eight years old, we’ve been watching the worldwide web grow into a globe-spanning network of collective cultural consciousness and shared social space.
