Spymac sets up Asian Disaster Relief
Fund
12/29/2004 02:21 PM

Monetary donations are now being accepted for Spymac’s Asian Disaster Relief Fund set up today to help the International Red Cross meet the needs of 11 countries affected by the devastating earthquake which struck the area two days ago. Spymac is an international community and many members have been affected by the tragedy. We extend our condolences to members in that region. Donations to the Spymac relief fund can be made using PayPal. Members making donations of $25 or more will receive ad-free status on their membership for a two-week period. Donations will be accepted until January 16, 2005. On that day, Spymac will celebrate its third birthday by turning the fund over to the Red Cross. Upon request, official tax-deductible receipts will be issued by the Red Cross. Food, medical supplies and water purification systems have started trickling into the devastated areas, as the United Nations warned this could be the biggest relief effort ever known. The body count has risen to more than 60,000 dead in 11 countries, with thousands still missing and more than a million left homeless. The UN estimates that nearly a third of the dead are children. The International Red Cross says more than one million people have been displaced and many have had to resort to looting to survive.

Greg Hughes is right:

"This is the right time to stop what you normally do, get out of your little digital world that you assume is all-defining and all-encompassing (it’s not, really) and come back to reality...Very real people are experiencing very real pain, and you can do your part to help them recover."
Until the end of the month, everything I earn from TopStyle and FeedDemon will be donated to the International Red Cross to help those affected by this disaster.

I just heard on the news another reason to give as much as you can to the tsunami relief effort. Congress is well on its way to approving legislation to allow all money donated to a recognized charity by January 31st to be 100% deductible from LAST YEAR’S tax bill. It’s not the reason to donate, but since it may not end up costing you anything out of your pocket, it could well be easier…

Relief fund for burned-out bl0gger 05/25/2004 10:22 AM
Joey DeVilla has a blog entry on a Boston blogger whose house burned down this weekend: there's a PayPal donation box to help the poor guy out.
About 5 or 10 minutes later I started smelling smoke and heard my dad looking in the attic outside my room. It was now he started screaming, "The house is REALLY on fire. Get anything you can and get out!" He said this as he walked down the stairs and when he came back in after putting something outside.

I was a bit panicked and shaken but I grabbed my backpack and threw my computers in it and put on some pants. I should have probably put on the pants with my wallet in them, but for some reason I didn't. And I should have probably got a jacket as well seeing as it is so cold now.

Which Way Does The Promotion Go?


Which Way Does The Promotion Go? 04/12/2005 02:01 PM
There's been so much hype in both the mobile and music industries about ringtones, that people seem to have lost sight of what's actually happening in the market -- and whether or not it's even remotely sustainable. With that in mind, it seems like both industries seem to think that because they've been able to sell a good number of ringtones at ridiculously high prices (though, way too often through trickery) that ringtones are the only place to be. So, while the recording industry continues to sue file sharers and neglect radio, everyone's talking ringtones. That leads to some bizarre promotional ideas, such as releasing a song as a ringtone first before it even hits the radios or stores (downloadable or physical). Apparently, the industry believes that exclusivity trumps promotion (or, that exclusivity somehow is the best promotion). The way the industry normally works is that you get a song out there and playing on the radio, TV (and, increasingly, whether the industry likes it or not, on file sharing networks) and use that to drive demand to get people to purchase CDs or downloads (or other assorted musician related items). However, this is the equivalent of saying that some record label decided it would launch a CD in stores first, before promoting it. Once again, it seems the recording industry has its priorities so screwed up that they're looking to make money on their own promotions, rather than using the promotions to sell something. In the long run, that seems like shrinking your own market. How many businesses charge you to view their commercials?
