Thesis vs Genesis – Comparing Premium WordPress Themes
Over the Labor Day weekend, I had the pleasure of working on my first website using the Genesis Framework from StudioPress. I say pleasure because it happened to be my husband's new photography site, and it was the first theme he's chosen that didn't lead me to using a string of obscenities that might actually shock people who regularly watch HBO. Thesis vs Genesis. Enjoy! 59.95.
The Trouble with Klout
Paul Gillin
Estimating influence is a delicate balance of art and science. People are drawn to quantitative methods because scores are easy to understand. The downside of reducing influence to a number, though, is oversimplification. Lately, I've been looking at Klout , the popular new tool that bills itself as "The Standard for influence measurement. The more I look at it, the less I like it.
50 (of the) Best Social Media Guides, Tips and Insights of 2011 (So Far)
Social media marketing has gone well beyond the hype stage and is now mainstream business practice. Still, questions remain: how do I use social media most effectively across the enterprise? Which social media monitoring tools should I use? What should I monitor for? How do I use my time and resources most effectively? What social media developments and trends should I be watching? What to do?
Why Klout matters. A lot.

Yes, this is a real invitation. If you hate Klout … and you probably do … try to take a deep breath and read ahead with an open mind.

9 attributes of the best thought leadership content

Some time back, I blogged about the attributes of a thought leader.

Surely, you have a suggestion that will get us to ten attributes? Visionary. It's best to address a problem before customers realize that it's a problem. Provocative. The best thought leadership pieces are bold and attack conventional wisdom. Differentiated. No "me too" ideas allowed. Relevant. Timely. Has a narrative. Demonstrates mastery.

The Traditional Marketing Playbook Is Dead!

How do you help them make a deal? You negotiate amazing offers like price reductions and special financing. You create flashy sales collateral. You book fancy events and cold call to get them appointments. Hire people who are D.A.R.C.

I know St. Thomas is not everyone's cup of tea, but I have inlaws who live there so we visit once or twice a year. We were just there for 12 days over Christmas, and rather than an official trip report, I'll pass along a few highlights from this trip.
Secret Harbour Beach: was lovely, as always. Quiet when the swell was up in other parts of the island. Not a lot of live coral for snorkeling but a lot of beautiful fish in the reefs to the left of the beach. Rented a standup paddleboard, which was fun. Frequent trips by beachside waitress and the new management at the onsite restaurant seems to be doing a good job. Parking is more restricted than it used to be, so if you're driving I would come earlier in the day if you can.
Lindquist Beach: this is my favorite beach on the island now. Relatively isolated and beautiful sandy beach. $3 per adult. There can be occasional seaweed when the swell is up, but most of the time it is peaceful and lovely. Picnic tables and plenty of shade.
Lady Lindsey Sunset Sail (Ritz): this came our way as a gift. They served sangria and tapas that night in addition to regular beach drinks. We had plenty to eat and drink. Friendly and organized crew. We sailed around to Christmas Cove and saw the green flash. The sail is open to anyone, not just Ritz guests. The Ritz is always a pleasure to walk around and check out the scene.
The Cellar (Red Hook): my inlaws go there often, so my wife and I went by for happy hour on a Friday. Tasty and inexpensive ($6) appetizers and fun drinks.
Hull Bay: never been there before. A little funky but neat area. Pretty good beach restaurant there with fish and chips made from fresh fish. Lots of boats.
Mahogany Run golf: played a round with rented clubs. Great course, and there was barely anyone on the course – perhaps because it's quite expensive, but a fun time if you want to treat yo self.
Cinnamon Bay (St. John): we hopped the ferry with the kids and spent the day at Cinnamon Bay. Stunning beach, less crowded if you walk to the left when you get to the beach. Decent snorkeling off the cay. The onsite restaurant there was not great, however – poor food and expensive for what it was. Bring cash to St. John for taxis and the ferry, which does not take credit cards!
Wanted to try the Ecotour, but ran out of time. That will have to wait until the next trip!

St. Thomas trip Highlights: Christmas 2012
I know St. Thomas is not everyone's cup of tea, but I have inlaws who live there so we visit once or twice a year. We were just there for 12 days over Christmas, and rather than an official trip report, I'll pass along a few highlights from this trip.

Glad to hear Secret Harbour is as good as in the past. We enjoyed our time there.
Any other reasonably priced gold courses nearby? That's one of the resons we now go to TCI--more reasonably priced golf. We would like to return to SH again sometime. I remember the restautant at SH to be quite good. Is that still so?
I'll keep your other tips in mind. Thanks for keeping us up to date.
Report Abuse
Thanks for the report.
What was the Ecotour? We are looking at a cruise this year and St. Thomas is one of the stops. We've already been to St. Thomas/St. John on a land vacation so looking for something we haven't done yet there.
I saw something about a guided jet ski tour. Do you know anything about that?
Report Abuse
Answers to your questions:
Mahogany Run is the only golf course on the island.
We went to the more casual restaurant at Secret Harbour, the Cruzan Beach Club. Good burgers and sandwiches. The ahi tuna nachos were also really good. We didn't go to the higher end restaurant, the Sunset Grill.
The ecotour is called Virgin Islands Ecotours:
They got great reviews on Tripadvisor, so I wanted to try the kayak and snorkel with my son.
I have seen the jet skis out on the water, but I'm not sure where they launch from.
Report Abuse
Thanks for answering. Here is the jet ski tour I was referring to:
Report Abuse
KVR: Jet skis are only available at a limited number of places. Sapphire (I think that is your ad), MorningStar Beach and Bolongo come to mind. A large part of the east end of St Thomas is a marine reserve and PWC are not allowed.
Jimmie: I think that there is something on St Thomas to suit everyone. If someone says it's not their cup of tea, they just may have missed the spot they would like.
Report Abuse
hmmm, waited 3 hours for a car at airport with many other angry travelers, held up at Point Pleasant in broad daylight, saw local man urinating against fence at entrance to Coki beach, harassed on the beach by strung out local guys, treated like garbage by locals at almost every venue, ate "okay" food for high prices, and did some not-so-great snorkeling. We visited over 20 warm vacation destinations and by far this was the worst. The highlight of the stay was the ferry ride to St. John. Don't bother with St. Thomas. It is totally run down and quite frankly, i don't think the locals want us to visit their island any more. Too bad, I was looking forward to keeping my money in America instead of supporting foreign countries.
