This Focused Performance Weblog started life as a "business management blog" containing links and commentary related primarily to organizational effectiveness with a "Theory of Constraints" perspective, but is in the process of evolving towards primary content on interactive and mobile marketing. Think of it as about Focusing marketing messages for enhanced Performance. If you are on an archive page, current postings are found here.

Friday Fun -- Just finished the DVD set for Babylon 5, Season 3 last night. Eight years later, it's still some of the best television ever, including my favorite quote from the series...
"You know, I used to think it was awful that life was so unfair. Then I thought, wouldn't it be much worse if life were fair, and all the terrible things that happen to us come because we actually deserve them? So, now I take great comfort in the general hostility and unfairness of the universe." - J. Michael Straczynski, via his Babylon 5 character, Marcus Cole
(More memorable quotes here, and suggestions for watching the DVD set here on my non-business blog.)
Somehow, I get the sense that Marcus' mindset could serve a project manager well.
(By the way, 10 bonus points to the first person who writes a comment with the quickest connection between the Babylon 5 series and the Theory of Constraints. You don't even have to go through Kevin Bacon.)
