This little guy has absolutely nothing to do with this website. The webmaster just thought he looked cool.
Although this website features Mike Berman's Techtalk column, which covers everything and anything having to do with personal computers, it also features Andy Marken's Content Insider columns, which deal with marketing trends affecting the public relations and advertising industry and tech/computer companies. You can also follow the ongoing battle over issues affecting geeks worldwide as Mike and Dave Berman go head-to-head in their Berman Vs. Berman debates.

“I'm the good guy here. I told them this could happen if they didn't prepare. Did I get a "Thank you"? No, I got crucified. But, they wouldn't listen.” – Thomas Gabriel, “Live Free or Die Hard ,” 20th Century Fox, 2007
We like IP (Internet Protocol) because without it there would be no streaming content industry.
Without IP, we’d be limited to:
· Watching what was on appointment TV on the day, time they showed it
· Going out every evening to Blockbuster – yes, they’d still be alive … for something
· Waiting for the postal person to deliver our red envelopes of DVDs
· “Letting” our overly bright son beat us at chess … again
Yeah, that’s about it!

Theaters are struggling with their reopening and talking hot/heavy to remain relevant.
Content producers/aggregators are checking their cellphone directories to see if numbers are still active.
Studios and networks wonder if they’re coming to the streaming table to eat or be eaten.
Agents simply wonder WTF.
Have you ever reminisced about going back to the simpler days of pen, ink and notebooks?
