Is there such thing as a Website?
Posted on | July 6, 2009 | Comments Off
During my last presentation at the Web Analytics Day I asked the attendees “What is a Website”? and just one or two persons where able to hardly answer. This is not weird, it is based on the way humans learn. We tend to learn things just once and then we just repeat what we’ve learnt. So when we think we know something we just stop asking “why” and the learning process is done. That represents a very danger behavior when the learnt knowledge is not so.
In this case nobody asked themselves what a website is because everybody thought they knew it…until someone (me) ask it and they finds out that there is no answer on their mouth
.
The answers of my question was “There is nothing called website per se” it depend on how you define it. I mean, it could be:
1- A domain with a single page.
2- A domain with several pages.
3- Several domains with a single page.
4- Several domains with multiple pages.
5- Several domains and/or domains with single or multiple pages.
So my concern is, how would you be able to implement you analytics tool when you don’t even know what your website is
…you wouldn’t and that’s the point. So…do you already know what your website is?

SocialMetrix.com – One of the Red Innova Startup Competition’s Finalists
Posted on | June 11, 2009 | Comments Off
Its been almost two years since we (the SocialMetrix founders) talked for first time about developing a reporting platform based on what people are saying on the Internet.
It was a long road until today. Things where normally different of what we were thinking and contingency plans became part of our normal planning but what never chanced in all this time was the final objective and our passion.
Today, I’m very glad to announce that SocialMetrix is finalist at the Red Innova Startups contest. This gave us the necessary breath to keep pushing SocialMetrix to the place we’ve imagined from the first time.
I would like to thanks Red Innova for the opportunity that gave us.
I would also like to thanks the other people that make this Company come true with functional products and clients. Martin (Enriquez) the guy that always said “It is possible”, Sebastian (Rosenfeld) one of the most pragmatic and passionate guys I’ve ever meet and Gustavo (Arjones), a f…ing brilliant mind.
My best wishes to the rest of the participants, I know some of them (like Santiago Siri) and they are amazing. Good luck!
