. . . aided by PR.

Make no mistake about it, there’s a PR machine behind Jim Cramer’s recent press fame. Where has Jim appeared?

1. Cover of Business Week
2. 60 Minutes
3. Imus in the Morning
4. and much more

You gotta be good to get good press, but it doesn’t just happen. CNBC and Jim Cramer have a major PR machine behind them.

Way to go Jim: I’m a fan.

How Important is our Information Society?

Filed under: Revolution 3.0, Google, Yahoo

I thought you’d never ask. When I give presentations, to make the point that the Industrial Revolution has been transformed into the Information Revolution, I provide the Market Capitalization of these companies:

On 10/24/2005 . . .
Yahoo + Google was $146 billion
Ford + GM was $33 billion

On 11/16/2005 . . .
Yahoo + Google $167 billion
Ford + GM $26 billion

I’d rather be drivin’ a Yahoo than a Ford. How ’bout you?

If you’re a blog fan, you should read this article from the Wall Street Journal. It lists many interesting blogs — a few that I have never heard about.

Hey, there’s millions and millions of ‘em. Soon there will be billions and billions of them. Carl Sagan must be smiling — somewhere.

Take Me Out to Google Base

Here’s Google’s new database offering. In typical Google fashion, you’ll find very little explanation of the service. You can add items such as, events, recipes, want ads, vehicles, and more.

Give it a test drive. See what you think. Of course, you’ll be hearing a lot about this service.

The New York Times states: Google Aims for the Classified Ads Business. If that’s the case, newspapers of the world better find a new revenue stream.
