Stalelife gets into it with ad agency troublemaker and reporter, Adomatica

You know those guys, don’t you? The ones always posting the first scoop on what happened at ABC&D agency?

Well that’s Adomatica, a staple in the Austin (and national ad scene). He’s never ripped us before, but I felt obliged to stand up for our fellow ad men and women and give him a bit of the business.

Or he’s a good friend and super-smart online marketer who writes a snarky and helpful blog in his spare time. Grab the Adomatica RSS feed, it’s worth your attention. Unlike the GSD&M / McGarrah Jesse Austin Addy Awards.

Stalelife goes to BarCamp

BarCamp is a unique idea – it’s the un-conference (much like 7up was the un-cola). At BarCamp, there are no fees, and no stodgy presenters selling you on their “unique” offerings.

Instead it’s professionals gathering, discussing and sharing ideas and values with others who do the same thing. It’s the ultimate social tool for business folks, and we’re into it.

Stalelife is definitely going to participate, and we might even lead a make-shift session. After all, if you don’t cultivate this Good Samaritan-ism for Business 2.0, it’ll likely go away.

Topics for this ProductCamp are marketing and project management. Should be good. If you’re in Austin, we hope to see you there.

Stalelife invades SXSW

It’s true. We’ll be all over SXSW the next ten days.

Look for a couple handsome fellas with a video camera in one hand and a beverage in the other.

On a serious note, we plan to interview our favorite session leaders and some industry insiders. When we see something we think will interest you, our clients and readers, we’ll be posting it.

More to come – the Fest starts Saturday.
