Welcome to another edition of Dot Com Pho, the weekly meet up for Dot Com Moguls and want to be Dot Com Moguls. Every Saturday, the Dot Com crew meets up at Pho Lan restaurant at Number 3 Road in Richmond for a few hours of networking, food and good clean fun.

On today’s edition of Dot Com Pho, we find out how much it cost to have a nice day, Michael Kwan’s 50% off sale, the Fraser Valley WordPress camp, the gadget of the week, the winner of the Market Leverage bag of stuff and a whole lot more.

Below is my video from today’s Dot Com Pho. Below my video is Stephen’s video from today’s Dot Com Pho. Two for the price of one! :mrgreen:

There was an open invite link on one of Friday's posts, where you can contact John to save a seat for you. It was my 4th DCP and the number of folks have ranged from 8 to 25. And there's no free lunch, it's dutch.

here's a shorter version of the draw- you might say this is the unbiased third party/Price Waterhouse audited version

You see, it's like the Incredible Hulk Movie. You wanted to be first, and you get a crappy Hulk Movie. Then I have to come along and remake it.

It's best to take the time necessary to do a good job that you can be proud of, that shows that you actually care, and that demonstrates your creativity and attention to detail.

Nuff said...

There's only one problem. Your remakes are not better. If I were to set up a poll, I have even money that I would beat you, both in time and in quality. :twisted:

There's another problem... Putting that poll on yours or my blog isn't neutral. We'd have to get a more neutral third party like.... ProBlogger... to post it or something. Then there is also the problem of you trying to game the poll and do evil marketing with it which I always expect :razz:

The only reason my remakes aren't better to you is because you made the "Ang Lee" version :lol:

What's funny about the new "Hulk" film is that Edward Norton isn't happy with the finished product.
