I have two stories in the latest issue of the e-commerce magazine from Solid Cactus, the eBiz Insider.  I have the cover story, “New Year, New Look:  Is it Time for a Redesign?” which covers some tell-tale signs your e-commerce site needs a redesign.  Check out the story, here.

The second story was a last minute story, as it was breaking news.  I saw on one of my client’s Twitter updates that he was going to be on CNN.  I thought that maybe it was for a health-related story for his soon-to-be launched supplement site, ElementzNutrition.com.  However, when I went to CNN and searched for his name, I found out that it was his picture that was the first of the “Miracle on the Hudson” plane emergency landing that was the first to circulate the media.  He got some HUGE attention from the media during those few days thanks to his being on the ferry and taking a picture and uploading it right onto TwitPic.

Janis Krums was gracious enough to be interviewed about the incident– and there was an e-commerce spin on it of course- how powerful social media really can be for business!  Check out Janis’ story here, in the article, “Elementz Nutrition Co-Founder Makes Social Media History, Followers Grow 20x,” as well as learn more about why Twitter and the like are good for e-commerce!

Ah, this was a really great issue overall!  If you don’t get the print version, read the eBiz Insider online here.
