Tomorrow we will have Board of Director and Shareholder Meeting at PSPINC. We have a very important guests from Japan. We went to SEATAC this morning to pick up our guests.
Many of you utilize Wordpress to develop websites for customers. You have been thinking Wordpress is the best thing for customers as well as you. But you know it needs to up to date or carries several security risks. But you weigh the benefit to the risk and continue to use Wordpress.
Marketing wise, you talk to your customer about the advantages of Wordpress as if they are your strength. But you know everyone who uses Wordpress has the same advantage and disadvantage. You are no different from 1,000 other web developers who use Wordpress. Your only advantage is your sales talk.
You need to be different but you don’t know how. You will not get any bigger than what you are right now doing what you do with the tools that you use. You use SEO and Mobile Compatibility to push your sales but that will take you only so far. You look for recurring income but your business model does not have stable recurring income.
Your Web development price will go down because there will be more competitors. There will be more companies doing what you do. What can you do?
The fist thing is to think about your development environment. Wordpress might be good, even the best for what you do. But Wordpress will not make your company any different for other companies. Drop Wordpress then think about what you can do. What you can do that makes you different? Is it important to be different from others? Just think about it.
If you still think you are better off with Wordpress, I solute you. You may be different from other Wordpress Web Developers, after all. PSPINC is not a Wordpress Web Development Company.
can you tell where I am?

Internet of Things (IoT)
Here are the new buzzwords for high-tech industry for you. It is “Internet of Things” and by the first look, you might just say what the heck are they?
I thought the same way so I did some research. Here is what I think what IoT is. There are things that are inherently Internet ready such as your computer, TV Set Top Box, Tablet and Smartphones. And there are by design not Internet ready such as your couch, refrigerator, bicycle, car, bed, coffee maker, windows, doors, air conditioning, shower and so on. At this point, just about everything is not Internet ready. We call them “Things”.
What if we made them connected to Internet?
Imagine your bathroom is connected to Internet, people will know what time you take shower or if you take shower … no, just kidding. What if the bathroom knows you are running out of toilet paper and it order TP before you run out of it? How about your office drawer knowing when you are running out of supplies and order them for you?
IoT … by having “Things” connected to Internet; “Things” will be much smarter and help your daily life. To accomplish this, Things must understand the environment they are in, by site, smell, sound, weight, temperature and so on. Yes, Things must have sensors and communication devices. They require more IP Addresses than what we have now. Thus, we will be using IP V6.
Well, I hope now you have some idea what IoT is.
One of our newest Web & Email hosting companies is called Parcom. Since early yesterday, one of the Parcom's email servers was flooded with email and crashed. We are working with people who run Parcom to recover the server but it is taking a lot longer that we want.
The transfer of the service was so recent that we do not have an access to the servers directly. We must work with the former company to recover the server. Our goal is to move all Parcom customers to PSPINC's premiere Email service DreamersI as soon as possible to avoid this kind of issue.
We are very sorry for Parcom customers who are affected by this. We are working throughout the night to fix this problem. Thank you for choosing Parcom and PSPINC.
Today's open house is at Mercer Island Dermatology …
Have you hear of IoT?
I learned yesterday.
I'll tell you what it is soon.
