Friday Night Links

by Brian Clark

Friday Night Lights

A couple of remarkable riffs on my blog subscribers post—one for small businesses and one that elaborates on the original extremely well.

People look forward to and remember stories, even if you’re trying to sell them something.

Confidence is the root of success… in person and in your writing.

How do you measure the value of a link?

Digg auto-bury got you down? Try these alternatives (nice theme mod, btw).

Jason Calacanis’ VC-funded Mahalo is either the sock puppet of Web 2.0, or the Boo.com of Web 2.0. Your choice, but those truly are the only two alternatives.

    Mahalo for the constructive feedback!

    Seriously, take a look at some of search results when you have a chance and compare them to Google, Yahoo, and Ask’s and I think you’ll find there is a place for us in the world.

    I agree. Tropical did a sweet job modifying the theme. Well done.

    Mahalo for the constructive feedback!

    Jason, there’s nothing I can say that hasn’t been said. If I’m wrong, I’ll be the first to say it, but I can’t see it happening. And don’t try to blame it on a lack of vision. ;)

    I thing you mean “when you’re wrong” ;-)

    I guess hindsight is the best determiner of the appropriate adverb. :)

    If you’re looking for funding from the VCs I’m sure the first thing people are thinking is; will Google buy this company in six-12 months?

    Thanks for the Digg alternatives Brian.
