Okay, you go to a nice restaurant. The table setting is beautiful and the service is impeccable. Nice lighting, good music. And then you order your filet mignon. This is gonna be good.

But then you get your meal and it's not filet mignon but a hamburger from the dollar menu at McDonalds. What's happening?

This is similar to having a great looking web site but has bad content. Something's amiss. There is more to a web site than just the design and function. You need to have good content.

I've been talking to several clients and potential clients about the content on their sites. I'm finding that content has been more of an afterthought than a recognized need. We really do need to have great content on our web sites.

If you're looking at your site and realizing that you need to revamp your content, I would like to help. Click here to read more about content writing on my business web site, Green Chair Marketing Group. We would love to help you better communicate your message.

I was watching Letterman tonight and heard the audience laughing. It made me remember the time I was at the show a couple years ago. You can see the picture here of the lobby.

Things were pretty regimented. You weren't allowed to take pictures in the lobby (obviously I was a bit disobedient). There were some shouts about my flash when I took the picture.

Anyway, before the taping of the show Letterman came out for a few minutes to greet the audience, which was nice.

But as I was watching the monologue tonight it harkened me back to the night I was there. It seemed like the level of excitement was elevated and people were laughing for the sake of adding to the energy of the show.

Bruce Willis was the guest the night I was there and he was funny. And it was a great experience to be there--something I had always wanted to do. And I'd do it again. But I think I'd laugh normally next time.
