Advice: MooPig's New Advice Section

Comparative Study Advice Counselors Amalgamated

by Pat Darnell

We have entered into a new enterprise -- The Advice Business...

You know, like what to do with stuff... where to store stuff... how to do you nails without a hammer... stuff.

As Blogger's Blogger, MooPig Wisdom takes pride in finding and copy\paste-ing features by others who have good advice for future referendum... what ever that means.

Here follows Tony's what to do with MySpace... we know it's old news but a good start we think: eh?

TONY's Kansas City: February 2008
Says TONY [HERE]
"The only thing I do with Myspace is reject friend requests from crappy Kansas City bands . . . Luckily, Alonzo Washington is putting the social networking site to better use.

"A local fugitive recently contacted Mr. Washington via Myspace in order to get help turning himself over to the authorities.

"Once again, Mr. Washington's use of the Internet trumps what most bloggers are doing and offers a sight glimpse of hope that the Internets can be used for something other than political diatribes or bad dating choices. [read entire article and comments HERE]

FWD::FWD Message from a mySpace Captain

No one is immune.

If a FWD::FWD Message comes your way what should you do? I don't know either. But here is one I ...{ahem}... augmented to fit my needs. It is from a mySpace unsolicited friend, Mariella Tirado.

So far I have seen this one go around at least ten times... give or take. The problem is that it has missing parts, and makes absolutely no sense. How long will it continue to inhabit cyberspace? This is the advertising medium of the future, if only I could harness it. Meanwhile I add my curve ball to it.

I suppose I will take some of these messages in the future and augment them to my way of thinking, and give'em a spin back into the viral stew. Sound good? Let's get ready for:

Whoa, hold on a New York Minit! Prosecutors Might want to persue a heftier pedophilia charge on resigned Gov!!

UPDATE!!!! March 14, 2008


NY Gov. Spitzer, 5.5k Whore Master BREAKING UPDATE: SPITZER TO RESIGN?!UPDATE:Spitzer Unsafe Sex w/ProUPDATE: NEGOTIATING RESIGNATION?



This is not his first dirty ugly scandal. And still NY only votes blue.
FIRE SPITZER (prior scandal)
It's a GREAT Day! SPITZER has EGG ALL OVER HIS FACE! different scandal, same face

Mr. Spitzer, who ran on a platform of cleaning up Albany corruption, was elected governor in 2006 by a landslide.
His cell phone records tied him to the Emperors Club prostitution ring. The ring launders money and launders Spitzer too I guess. Ouch.

UPDATE: Fox News is reporting that SPITZER WILL RESIGN. WOOT! He is/was despicable. The must be doing the cha cha down on Wall on Broad.
Spitzer was indicted by the Southern district on February the 7th. Wow.

UPDATE: I HEARD THE CORNER OF WALL AND BROAD BROKE OUT IN CHEERING WHEN WORD BROKE. Comments: "I bet Andrew Kennedy Cuomo is fookin yodeling. ..."


MooPig asks this: "Why would anyone even try to become a politician today?" MooPig would never make it past the first round. He would have a bunch of people in the back of the assembly, waving handkerchiefs, "Hey, imbecile, remember us?" Considering being a leader? Good luck.

March 12, 2008: MooPig Correspondents have scooped the governor's prostitute's mysPace... "We feel that the mind that wrote this biography is the mind of an 'AAD' -- American Acoustic Development -- victim. With the panache of a prepubescent, she says she was 'discovered while uncovered,' and we find that to be a definitive Venus d' Milo moment. Proof, have you, that literature is living, and living is literature." It is as hairless as Greek classic art, making Gov Spitzer for sure a fence walking pedophile. MPW Ed.

I am all about my music, and my music is all about me… It flows from what I’ve been through, what I’ve seen and how I feel. I live in New York and am on top of the world. Been here since 2004 and I love this city, I love my life here. But, my path has not been easy. When I was 17, I left home. It was my decision and I’ve never looked back. Left my hometown. Left a broken family. Left abuse. Left an older brother who had already split. Left and learned what it was like to have everything, and lose it, again and again. Learned what it was like to wake up one day and have the people you care about most gone. I have been alone. I have abused drugs. I have been broke and homeless. But, I survived, on my own. I am here, in NY because of my music. It started when I moved in with a musician during my odyssey to New York. One day, I was in the shower singing “respect.” He and his lead guitarist burst in, had me repeat it and it started. We wrote, rehearsed and toured. After recording a bit with them, I decided to move to Manhattan to pursue my music career. I spent the first two years getting to know the music scene, networking in clubs and connecting with the industry. Now, it’s all about my music. It’s all about expressing me. I can sit here now, and knowingly tell you that life’s hard sometimes. But, I made it. I’m still here and I love who I am. If I never went through the hard times, I would not be able to appreciate the good ones. Cliché, yes, but I know it’s true. I have experienced just how hard it can be. I can honestly tell you to never dwell on the past, but build from it and keep moving forward. Don’t let anyone hold you back or tell you that you can’t…because you can. I didn’t and here I am, just listen to it…. What we Want is my latest track. It’s really about trust, something my past has made very difficult for me to feel. This one was inspired by a guy, who taught me not to confuse my dreams with the sounds of the city…I hope you like it.

Learn to not be the best!In: My journey Monday Mar 10,2008

I Read these Periodicals: eWeek, Baseline, & CIO Insight

Dear Colleagues and fellow Innovation Mechanics:

I stand with you in not wanting to give in to secular competition, or be scandalized at the expense of losing my professional standing. In here with my peers, I often run across articles that fully support my prideful stance.

I have strong inclination that Customer Experience is the fastest growing business consideration in the new microcosm of Blogging, and cyber-raceous-space communicating. Following is just one of many found articles on innovation. I submit: "knock-off" has become the mother of innovation.

It may not be just the product your and my customers are looking for. "Our business ambience has much to do with our patent businesses," says Innovations. The future looks bright if we reverse decree "self-serve" to: trusting each other as patron and server, in our B2B enterprises. I think it is a good idea.

Do we not always keep an eye out for key-words and bench-mark decisions in the positive sense, to nurture free-world entrepreneurs in missions of business applications? I personally know that there is no simple shortcut, only a strong sense of "which and why" best practices apply in daily tasks to win customer loyalty, when there is so much ill will in the communities.

In sharing this entire article with you, as it appears in Innovations, supplement to Baseline, eWeek, and CIO Insight, our innovator spirits will gain confidence to stand up and be counted. PD

Innovation Through Customer Experience

In today’s ultra-competitive business environment, creating a unique customer experience could well be what makes or breaks your company.We live in a border less, 24 x 7 world in which competitive advantage is fleeting and seemingly unsustainable. Ideas are a commodity, and innovations are routinely knocked off by competitors in a matter of a few weeks or months.

In his new book, The Coming China Wars, University of California Business School professor Peter Navarro tells of one city in China that has become so adept at counterfeiting U.S.auto parts that the practice now makes up the majority of its economy. This is a two-pronged problem for U.S.companies because not only are they unable to sustain an advantage against a copycat competitor, but their brand is beholden to the quality of parts they did not’t even produce.

In a world of simple knock offs, we need another route to sustainable advantage. That route is customer experience.

When you think of the companies that have broken out of the pack to redefine their markets in recent years – companies like Starbucks, Nike, Google, Wal-Mart, Southwest Airlines, and Apple – they have succeeded by creating an experience that customers find compelling enough to seek out for themselves. That experience is a barrier to entry for competitors. It’s distinctive, and nearly impossible to copy.

Customer experience does not’t necessarily mean customer service, although that’s a big part of it. Customer experience is about an interaction that has special meaning for the customer. BMW owners can tell you that there’s something about the feel of driving their car that no other vehicle can replicate. A Harley motorcycle enthusiast would never own another brand. Nike has used its advertising to create an identity that its customers instinctively want to adopt. People will wait in line to buy overpriced coffee at Starbucks because there’s something soothing and invigorating about the atmosphere.

One of my favorite examples of a company that provides outstanding customer experience in a commodity business is Wawa, a Pennsylvania-based convenience store operator. Its commitment to friendly and positive customer service has earned it a fanatical following. There are Wawa fan clubs on MySpace.com, Live Journal.com and Face book.com, where visitors exchange their best customer service stories. I don’t know about you, but I’ve never distinguished one convenience store from another. This 540-store grocery chain has managed to create a cult of customer enthusiasts that any business would envy.

Customer experience comes in many forms, and they don’t necessarily involve technology. In fact, successful companies often do nothing more than find out what really matters to their customers, and then focus on doing that very, very well. A great example of this is Southwest airlines. The airline industry is obsessed with complexity; its fare structure alone is incomprehensible to its customers, and the logic of the hub-and-spoke system is often baffling. Southwest went back to basics and focused on doing a few things well that customers said really mattered to them: take off on time, arrive on time, get them their baggage quickly, and don’t charge a lot of money. Believe it or not, those simple things are differentiators in the airline business.

Think about what you can do to create a unique customer experience. Ask customers what they want, and then give them that plus more. Find ways to delight them and they will be yours for a very long time.
