What is quality? This question has been haunting me for months now. To this day nobody has been able to answer this question. Not even me, though this is a word I use often at work. Working at a company which – for Dutch standards – is big, it’s hard to avoid talking about the subject of quality.
The term is usually surfaces as a contradiction. A marketeer is interested in sales targets. While I feel quality is our target. The webanalytics specialist keeps talking about conversions (meaning sales for most webanalists). I keep going on about this quality issue of mine. They seem to be opposite points of view. There is debate. Frustration on my end. A deadlock all around.

I truly dislike most USB hubs. Even the best looking ones look just awful sitting on your desk. Like the dusty decorations at christmas in a cheap and old store. So I’ve decided that if I’m going to have one, it’d better be so over the top ugly that nobody doubts that I chose it for it’s practical merits. I’m still looking for the ugliest little USB hub. This one ranks way up there.US$17.00

Twitter is the search engine of the future. At least – that’s what some people say. I think that the Twitter content can be really helpful in giving better results to search queries. Two questions though:

Web editors are specialists in the field of writing good content. They are usually not specialists on the subject matter they write about. This means that web editors need the subject specialists dearly. But how do you get them to help you in such a way, that they’re not in the way of the creative process, but they do supply their expertise?

A long day at work, a quarrel with your hubby, an annoying postal employee. There’s are times when you wish you had your very own control-alt-delete buttons somewhere on your body.
