We are delighted to have Francois join the Conversition team today! Francois is our newest developer and we look forward to all the interesting new ideas he will bring to our team.
He’s a fan of google and comics so we can already tell he’ll fit in great.
He’s also teaching us french internet lingo. This means “till we meet again.”

Though we love to read computer programming books about Symfony, PHP, and Flash, Jean’s love of ‘real’ books has opened a new world for us. So, in no particular order, we’ve each listed out one book we’ve recently enjoyed. Perhaps you might want to read one of these yourself.
1) Good to Great by Jim Collins: Shows that greatness is not a function of circumstance, but largely a matter of conscious choice and discipline.
2) The Purple Cow by Seth Godin: It reminds me to not be boring, and that playing it safe is risky and very good is bad.
3) Click by Bill Tancer: Great insights around what people say they do and what they actually do regarding the internet
4) The Snowball by Warren Buffett: Interesting insight on life and business, start small, cultivate great ideas, pick the right people, be honest, work hard, and things will snowball.
5) The Little Church that Could by Jean Marie Davis: Not available for purchase (yet) but it’s a fun and inspirational review of the signs posted outside one church for an entire year
6) www.google.com: Google has the answer to every question – you just have to know how to ask it. [ok, ok, this isn't a book, but you get the point]
Our small, but growing library…

To celebrate the launch of MatterMeter, we announced on Twitter that we would give a MatterMeter t-shirt to the first person to DM us with the correct description of the easter egg on the website. Congratulations to FastIrish, a retired marine, for finding it! We will be giving away more t-shirts in the future so watch for your chance to get one!
We’re very excited about the interest taken in MatterMeter after being open to the public for only a week. We’ve already registered more than 4 000 visits and 30 000 page views! Google, 30 Rock, and IKEA have climbed to the top of our brand MatterBoard while Nike, Kentucky Fried Chicken, and Fox have drifted to the bottom. If that doesn’t sit right with you, you will just have to visit MatterMeter and make sure you matterize them yourself!
Based on your feedback, we’ve made some great additions to MatterMeter this last week. More will follow, but here are just a few of the things we’ve added so far:
- Live feed of who is joining, matterizing, following and replying
- Random matters (we are researchers you know)
- Top and bottom matters for today, this week, and this month
- Favorite the brands you are most interested in
We’re listening!
