You may have noticed that I’ve changed the name of my blog. I’ve changed it for two reasons. First, because I’ve left ITSMA and joined SAP , where I will focus on marketing the good ideas of the many subject matter experts there. I’m going to share my experiences in helping to build an engine for developing and disseminating good ideas for SAP (with names changed to protect the innocent and guilty alike).

I recently conducted a poll on LinkedIn asking respondents what they believe should be the #1 priority in 2012 for generating leads in B2B firms. The poll was promoted throughout LinkedIn Groups; a mix of b2b marketing and sales groups that I am a member of. I received 172 votes and the results were quite interesting. The poll also supports my message of how content marketing and lead generation go hand-in-hand.

Mesquite Dunes, Death Valley, CA. I don’t claim to be much good at photography, but it’s one of my more diverting hobbies.

In fact, there were so many other photographers there, that it was a challenge to frame any shot without one in it.

Although it has not been publicly announced, it appears QuinStreet has purchased Ziff Davis Enterprise , the publishers of eWeek, Baseline, CIO Insight and Channel Insider (not to be confused with Ziff Davis, the publisher of PC Magazine, or ZDNet, which is owned by CBSi). If you follow the B2B technology publishing landscape, you are almost certainly familiar with the Ziff Davis Enterprise brands.
