Peanuts to Profits With Thor Schrock
Peanuts to Profits With Thor Schrock

A few weeks ago I posted about a special offer we put together to help get Vista’s Service Pack 2 safely installed on computers before it is force-fed to our customers via automatic update on June 30th. The response was pretty good, and we were turning around most of the installs (even the problem children) in less than a day.

We cut a new commercial that is running on local Lincoln television to promote the offer as well. Take a look:

On Sunday a new Schrock Innovations commercial started airing on Channel 10/11 in Lincoln, NE. The commercial is intended to highlight all of the things people use their computers for, and to make them think about the company they choose to maintain those computers.

The telecast of Barack Obama’s inauguration as the 44th President of the United States is happening in the middle of the afternoon today.

If you are at work and can’t watch a television, you can visit the KOLN/KGIN website and watch the inauguration live on the Associated Press Web Stream.

One of my technicians at Schrock Innovations forwarded this video to me.  Compared to any of the Mac vs. PC commercials out there, this one is more truthful than any I have seen.  Enjoy!

To all of the nose-raised snobs on who churn out 140 keystroke diatribes on maintaining the purity of Twitter I say – No one really cares what you are doing.

12seconds was a great idea with future promise it just isn’t doing it for me and I don’t think its going to catch on. For every Twitter there are a lot of failures, and 12seconds is unfortunately one of the failures of 2008.

We are heading out to Denver for the Breakaway Conference where I will be speaking on a panel about video on the Internet.

12Seconds.tv alpha invites available here. 12Seconds offers Twitter-like video updates you can post to your Twitter time line.
