Forget about the Long Tail – the online world is all tail.
The real changes are just starting.
Companies that assume online markets are the same markets that used to watch their ads on television are kidding themselves.
Nothing is more pathetic than a CEO trying to pretend that he or she is hip.
OK, you're not really talking about humor at all. So why did you say to get a sense of humor?
Never love a company -- it can't love you back."

We are arrogant and we don't know it. We think we represent all customers when in fact we represent a slice of them. Companies would be stupid to take all our rhetoric at face value. But our influence is growing, it would also be stupid to ignore the potential we represent. We are noisy, we influence a lot of purchases, and we're increasing in number."
The Web is an accelerator more than a revolutionary.
1. Engage, don't sell.
2. Speak as individuals.
3. Be yourself.
4. Never lie.
5. Don't be afraid of passion.
6. Set your employees free.
7. The Internet strengthens great brands – and destroys false ones.
8. Forget about mass markets.
9. Remember that the Internet is still evolving.
10. Don't mistake the Web for the real world.
