25 years ago I launched this 👇
Just to serve others who love Six Sigma process improvement like me.
Who knew it’d become the leading Six Sigma publisher, with a print mag, conference co, recruiting service, and more?
Yet I still get impostor syndrome and cold feet launching anything new. 😅

Their advertising game is second to none.

Is it weird that I'm being cordial to the AI?
I'm definitely nicer (e.g., "please" and "that's great!") when it understands what I want to accomplish with the code.
Do you say "please" and "thank you" too to the AI?

New homepage has better Google PageSpeed Insights scores.
Phew.
Now have to work on Accessibility.

I track the daily installs of my @StyleKitio Chrome extension.
It's so strange how installs fluctuates from day to day.

A defensive domain name registration is proactively securing domains, often variations or misspellings of your primary domain, to prevent others from using them for malicious purposes or to protect your brand.

I took a detour this week to completely rewrite the @InsiderEmail tool from the ground up.

"The one thing you need to stand-out from all the AI slop that's coming out is the domain name." − @PaulENicks on @DomainSherpa with @J10enbaum

The first registrar to provide an API to for AI to consume is going to win the game.
Imagine people being able to ask:
* Is whatever.tld available to hand register?
