I was interviewed by Pamela Bond of Natural Foods Merchandiser Magazine a few months ago on “The power of the web and it’s ability to shape lifestyles and enhance our health”.

• Q: Do you think websites and web design have the power to shape lifestyles and enhance health?
• Q: What’s the future of social media?
• Q: Where will this lead?
• Q: We’ve seen applications that allow you to look up grocery items to determine if they’re gluten free or allow you to search from home for the nearest store that has a certain product. What’s the next step?

This was a fun interview to do. The article Pam envisioned was not what came out of it. She expected me to talk about how the Intranet & websites will make people healthier so it took an interesting turn from the beginning, but came out quite well if I say so myself.

Earlier this year while speaking at eMetrics San Jose on the Emerging Metrics: Online Video Metrics panel, I was interviewed by Dr. Ralph F. Wilson of “Web Marketing Today”. The topic for the interview was “The Four Basic Online Business Models“, which was released today.

Models discussed in this interview:

• eCommerce – user purchases something
• Content – ad supported & subscription
• Self Service – cost savings
• Lead Generation – gathering of PII (Personally Identifiable Information)

I recently did an interview with Pek Pongpaet.

1. Who are you and what do you do?
2. Can you explain analytics to us in a way that my diverse group of readers can understand?
3.You’re also working on a book I hear, can you tell me more about that?
4. Tell us a bit about the Netflix contest you’re working on?
5. I hear you are also a avid muay thai fighter. Can you tell us about that? Do you think your martial arts training compliments your line of work and vice versa?

Full interview can be found at Pek’s blog.
