I Want A Bullwhip

Sorry, a little off topic, but I’m working on my taxes this week. Not as much time as normal to write up longer blog posts.

Anyway, how cool is this thing? Talk about badass.

Verizon iPhone Poll Results

The results are in from the Verizon iPhone poll.

If you have an AT&T iPhone, would you switch to a Verizon iPhone if available?
Yes: 91%
No: 9%

If you do not have an iPhone, would you get one if offered by Verizon?
Yes: 93%
No: 7%

Now, I realize that any generic poll on a blog is going to be extremely biased.  People read blogs they enjoy similar views with and thus poll results are typically similar to the results of how the blog writer would have voted.

This absolutely occurred.  I have an iPhone, so I only voted on the first question, but I voted Yes.  If I did not have an iPhone, I would have voted Yes on the second question.

I am not saying this is a scientific poll by any means, but the desire for a Verizon iPhone was definitely more skewed than I predicted.  If nothing more, I am more worried for AT&T now than I originally was prior to this poll.

I have seen nothing in the news for 2 months now regarding a Verizon iPhone, but there also has been no contradictory news to discredit the rumor.  The latest prediction was for one to arrive in the second half of 2010.

I can’t wait and apparently I am not alone!

Jon Stewart versus Bill O’Reilly

Somehow, I love watching both of these guys. Incredibly, I end up agreeing with both of them at times. Either way, Jon Stewart is both incredibly smart and hilarious.

Here is the full, unedited interview thanks to Fox News.

Behavioral Marketing

From Michael comes a great TED speech by Sendhil Mullainathan on how to use behavioral marketing to solve our real problems.

It jumps around a bit with interesting examples, but the idea all comes together toward the end, so watch the whole thing.
