Gotta love Google!

BUILD IT, don’t even think about buying it?  :)  What do you think?

For years I’ve been amazed by how slowly even huge retailers have adopted CRM to help them recognize their customers and work with them:

• A decade or so ago, Saks Fifth Avenue lost me as a customer when they started sending catalogs to a company address - and I had spent a considerable amount of cash with them the previous few years.
• Just recently Neimans finally recognized the types of products I tend to buy and started email marketing some picks that had obviously been matched up to what I like to buy.  What year is this?
• Many retailers stop sending catalogs if you don’t purchase through those - yet they have no way of recognizing your purchases inside the store if there’s no rewards card or program.

So using a smartphone to pay for services - especially if it’s combined with rewards or recognition programs - may finally get all of us to a happier place.

Another example of extremis-insanity in litigious society wherein a real world author - comics writer for The Oatmeal - gets sued by the website that hoisted his comics without his approval.

INSANE?

I can’t decide if I’m more entranced with Kickstarter or the iPad cover (for the endless joys of flying coach and trying to do some work), but either way, this is a winner.

This sounded beyond cool - at first.

Imagine - Microsoft developing an app (perhaps this itself is amazing) for ANDROID.  That’s astonishing.  Jaw-dropping.

But then finding out that it’s accessible only through Facebook?  No, sorry, that’s a showstopper for me.  And I’ll bet for lots of others who are tired of Zuckerberg / Big Brother of the century thus far…

Of course, reading further and understanding that Microsoft Israel did the development - and it’s using Android like a sandbox?  (Or is that kitty litter?)
