Doug Says...: Interactive, Not Inferior
http://www.dougsays.com/2010/11/interactive-not-inferior.html
Seekant Interactive Founder Doug Wright. Friday, November 5, 2010. Interactive, Not Inferior. What does that word mean to you? Do you think of billboards or glossy magazine ads? What about interactive marketing? Brochure websites and spam email, right? While I was so concerned with who was better - engineering or product services - I'm so ashamed to admit that. From within that group, the perspective was the opposite of what one might expect. We were following design patterns, using newly released te...

Doug Says...: An Open Letter to: ABC
http://www.dougsays.com/2011/02/open-letter-to-abc.html
Seekant Interactive Founder Doug Wright. Friday, February 18, 2011. An Open Letter to: ABC. There isn't a lot of negative you can say about this quote. Ended in 1993. A few months ago, The Hub began showing reruns of this early-nineties masterpiece. It is still an amazing show. More amazing is that it has been nearly twenty years since Daniel Stern muttered the final line of the series. And as much as Daniel Stern was a great narrator, shouldn't Fred Savage's grown-up voice be the one we hear?

Doug Says...: Dropped Call Etiquette
http://www.dougsays.com/2011/05/dropped-call-etiquette.html
Seekant Interactive Founder Doug Wright. Wednesday, May 4, 2011. How many times has this happened to you? You're on the phone talking to somebody when suddenly the call drops. For the next five minutes, neither person can call the other because you are both trying at the same time. Finally somebody gets through, and the conversation continues. Clearly, we need an etiquette for handling dropped calls. My solution is simple: The person who made the original call is responsible for making the call-back.

http://www.dougsays.com/2009_11_01_archive.html
Seekant Interactive Founder Doug Wright. Tuesday, November 24, 2009. It's taken me a few months to get to this point, but I am formally announcing my newest startup - Seekant Interactive. First, let me explain that Patrick and I are on the best of terms and we are moving away from the Techspoke. So after my much-needed six month layoff from most client work, I have formed Seekant Interactive. I guess you could say that the name evolved from domain availability. After two stressful weeks of combing di...
