Wrapping up a long weekend

I took a peek at our Google Analytics numbers and it appears that many IMA Blog readers used the holiday weekend to spend time doing things other than read our blog. That’s okay, I suppose, but you will have some catching up to do this week, so I will keep this one short and sweet. (I am also still out of the office, theoretically doing things other than work. Check out this photo of me writing this blog. Don’t I look happy working from home?)

There are all sorts of things going on in the world o’ new media these days. I thought I would tell you about a few of them. Tomorrow, I will spend the day with a few other IMA staffers, likely holed up in the IMA Cafe Read the rest of this entry »

In and out…in brief

So, it has been a crazy couple of weeks. Vacation, traveling, great adventure. I’ve had it all. I thought I would use this weekly opportunity to share some of the stuff the Nugget Factory has in the works. Daniel told you a little about our trip to NYC, and our fab-u-lunch with Shelley Bernstein. We arrived back in Indianapolis Friday night and I will head out on the road tomorrow with Dan Dark to interview Dr. James Steward at the University of Michigan. Why? It’s our little secret…but with a little research I bet you could construct an educated guess.

While in NYC, Daniel and I worked on many projects, and one of them landed us in a meeting with IMA’s own, Lisa Freiman and the artist-duo Type A. You will definitely be seeing more from those guys, and from us, featuring those guys. Keep an eye out for more on that later this spring.
