Lisa Picarille, Jim Kukral, Shawn Collins and Sam Harrelson once again take on a plethora of geek marketing related topics in this week’s episode of the always long but always strong GeekCast.
Here is just a smattering of the many topics that are discussed:
- Asus eee vs Dell’s new mini laptop
- Jim and Sam go at each other over cloud computing’s future
- More iPhone 3G vs Blackberry talk. It sounds as if Lisa is thinking of joining the Scoble train and getting an iPhone while Shawn remains resolute in his BlackBerry snobbery. And Jim just can’t find an iPhone in Ohio.
- AffiliateVoice is launching to augment or compete (there’s some debate) with the still forming Performance Marketing Alliance. Shawn and Sam then have a back-and-forth on language and whether or not “performance marketing” as a term is too ambiguous.
- Jim turns his mandals into a marketing scheme along with his ukulele playing.
- More talk about the upcoming Affiliate Summit in Boston on August 10-12. Somehow, the gang decides it is a good idea to do a live show a la Diggnation with beverages and a couch. We’ll see if that happens.
All in all, episode 26 is one for the ages. Literally. The show runs a ukelele rendition of a Neil Simon song 98 minutes.
