Check out my recent blog post on mobile analytics for mobile apps on Organic’s ThreeMinds blog. A special thank you to my colleagues for their feedback and constructive criticism. I really appreciate it. My blog post is based on my experiences working on mobile analytics for iOS and Android apps. I cover mobile analytics best [...]

Three weeks ago I was really sick with strep throat, I couldn’t really talk and I had to take a couple sick days from work. I was still working part of my sick days though because I still needed to deliver on various projects and deliverables. Since I was in bed getting over strep, I [...]

I went to Disruptathon’s Hottest Mobile Apps event tonight. There was a huge turnout and I met a lot of interesting folks working on some pretty cool projects. The whole DC tech scene with mobile is blowing up. I even discovered that I live right down the street from a mobile app company called PointAbout. [...]

Saturday morning was an especially good morning – coffee and mobile analytics iPad app testing. I’m right in the middle of testing a Webtrends Mobile SDK tagging implementation by Small Society for a new iPad app. Normally I use browser based add-ons HTTPFox or WASP for performing QA of web analytics tagging on websites and [...]

I’m off to explore Sri Lanka with some friends for a much needed vacation. I’ve been really busy with custom Webtrends tagging implementation on a large web analytics project at work, as well as custom tagging using the Webtrends SDK for an Android app and an iPad app. I’m planning to learn how to surf, [...]

I recently attended Webtrends training this past Monday. I took a Webtrends certification course in 2008 and found it very useful, so I was excited for the new training program. Sandra Elliot kicked off the beginning of the course. She’s a great teacher. The course was a useful refresher on Webtrends OnDemand and a good [...]

I’m really excited for Friday – not because it’s almost the weekend, but because I’m starting custom Webtrends tagging for an iPad app! I’m really excited to dive into the documentation of the Webtrends SDK and learn how to implement it. I think the testing of a recent Android app was challenging because the app [...]

I’ve been working long hours during the Christmas season to test web analytics tagging of an Android App. It’s been a challenging and fun project – namely because implementing web analytics solutions is not a trivial undertaking. There are a number of pain points – the developer doesn’t care if we can’t run his Android [...]

In my spare time, I sometimes work on WordPress web design. I’ve been hard at work on a new website for the Dupont Circle Advisory Neighborhood Commission 2B. I used WordPress as a content management system and a Wootheme to craft a user friendly site that’s easy to use. I’m pretty happy with the end [...]

I recently took some vacation time to travel to Costa Rica to meet up with a buddy from Sweden. We’d been scuba diving in Thailand and the Philippines in previous years. I was looking forward to disconnecting from the net, javascript and custom web analytics tagging, to recharge my batteries. It was an interesting trip, [...]
