RacingJunk.com’s Unique Honor Payment
System Propels Growth - Now the #1
Online Racing Classified Ad Site
09/10/2004 04:00 AMThe results are in. RacingJunk.com, the free classified site that
focuses exclusively on the needs of the racing community, is by far
the top destination for racers and racing fans. The site, which has
captured the hearts of performance racing enthusiasts in the U.S. and
abroad, has seen phenomenal growth this past year. The winning formula
behind this incomparable success is its Honor Payment system.
According to Rob Adams, Director of Sales and Marketing for
RacingJunk, “The big thing is you don’t have to pay until you sell and
unlike other online sites, you only pay if the service worked for you.
The honor system keeps this community growing. In one short year,
August 2003-04, RacingJunk.com grew from 13,000 to 46,000 members with
20,000 visitors a day, 600,000 a month and 14,000,000 monthly page
views. Our site has 10,000+ ads with an average value of 250 million
dollars daily —and those figures are steadily increasing,” he added.

12/19/2004 03:18 PMI just had the honor of introducing some extraordinary people to a
Silicon Valley audience. They were Jim Hake, CEO and founder of
Spirit of America, which I
wrote about last spring. His operation is bringing help
from U.S. citizens to people who need it in Iraq and Afghanistan, and
it's worth your time to look at it.
The stars of the lunch program, however, were Omar and Mohammed Ali,
two of three brothers who have been writing the
Iraq the Modelblog for
over a year. It's an on-the-ground look at conditions they're seeing
in a nation that's seen so much horror.
They're working on a citizen journalism project for coverage of the
upcoming elections. I wish them well on that and hope I can help in
some small way.
They have a leg up on this project because there's a new
Arabic-language blogging tool, funded by
Spirit of America, which will host blogs -- free of charge -- for
people in the Arabic-speaking Middle East. Nice work by all.
What an honor!

Tomorrow night's edition of "
Nightline&quo
t; on ABC will be a departure from the norm: the entire program will
consist of Ted Koppel
reading the names and showing the
pictures of more than 700 US servicemembers killed in Iraq since
March 19, 2003.
Here's
an interview with the Nightline executive producer whose idea it
was.
The idea is
not without controversy: Lisa de Moraes of the
WaPo decries it as "a cheap, content-free stunt designed
to tug at our heartstrings and bag a big number on the second night of
the May ratings race." (Is this
really Nielsen-bait?)
And the
Sinclair Broadcast Group,
which owns eight ABC affiliates, is
refusing to air the
broadcast, calling it "motivated by a political agenda
designed to undermine the efforts of the United States in
Iraq."

The Last Samurai and the Japanese code
of honor
04/09/2004 03:56 PMI just finished watching The Last Samurai. I'm not going to comment
on the acting or the historical accuracy, but rather on this notion of
a code of honor. Several people told me to watch it because they were
impressed with the code of honor in the film. I think there is
something comforting about codes of honor and people get goose bumps
when they see movies where heros die for honor. Some people identify
with the heros as they reflect on the unfairness and loneliness in
their own lives. A friend of mine manages the rights to Musashi by
Eiji Yoshikawa, which is one of Japan's most famous heros. He used to
get calls almost every year from CEOs of companies wanting to make the
film because they realized that THEY were Musashi.
The most honorable person I've ever known is my mom. She didn't
talk about or whine about honor. She was just honorable. In my
experience, the more people talk about honor, the less they know about
it and are either using it as a way to try to convince you to trust
them or trying to convince themselves or something. Some of the
stupidest mistakes I've made in friendship and business have been when
I have assumed that people spouting off about codes of honor would
actually adhere to them. "Don't you trust me?" "Just trust me."
Bah.
So I'm quite skeptical about Japanese honor. Sure, I bet there were a
lot of honorable people though the history of the Samurai, but I see
honor every day and they don't make movies about it. So stop making
movies about Japanese honor or we might start believing it.
I'm not bashing the notion of codes of honor in organizations since
I think it's often necessary to try to aspire to and enforce higher
level conduct in these organizations, but having a code doesn't mean
everyone will adhere to it and such codes probably cause these
organizations to be more trusted than they should.
