The Franchise King’s Weekend Round-Up, October 16th, 2010

I gave my news-scouring-Royal subjects the weekend off. This round-up includes this;

I'm staying at The Mandalay Bay, in Las Vegas. My view is a mountainous one, which is terrific for this King. I love looking at them. (Even the puny ones that surround Las Vegas.)

I'm here for Blogworld. I learning about the latest, greatest things in blogging, publishing, and all other things related to "new media." (Which are this year's buzzwords.)

Here's what you need to know about, as you plan for the future-business-wise;

1. Think video. Jim Louderback from Revision 3 was very focused on the topic. He was part of a keynote given last night. I believe him.

2. Podcasts. These can be video or audio. Still lots of interest in these. They're portable. That's good. Produce some about your business.

3. The end of computer desktops. The word is that our Smartphones, iPads, and laptops, (Our TV's, also) will be where we'll be devouring our content. (Your client's and customers will be there, too.) Learn a little about Google TV. (Hot topic.)

There's lot's of activity going on over at www.blogworld.com It's worth a look.
