How To Chart A Brave Path To Data-Driven | Clearhead | Excitement is building around brands adopting test and learn culture. Here at Clearhead I see that spark igniting in the eyes of clients I work with weekly here in the U.S. and abroad. They are starting to see how viewing everything as an experiment really works, how there can be a unifying method to test their problems, and how those two seemingly small strategies start to drive data-driven decision making. However, as you imagine, there are some challenges.

Chip Debit Cards: What You Need to Know | Dave Ramsey | Beginning late in 2015, that process started to change. Banks and financial institutions began rolling out the new chip debit cards. These MasterCard and Visa cards look like the ones you’ve used for years—the same numbers, logos, security number on the back and magnetic strip. So what’s new?

How to Protect Your Privacy Online | Art of Manliness | There’s a saying: “What you don’t know can’t hurt you.” But when it comes to internet privacy, nothing could be further from the truth. The new book Dragnet Nation has gotten some attention lately, with author Julia Angwin appearing on quite a few media outlets, including a recent 60 Minutes feature.

The 20 best CDs of 2011 , by Brian Q. Newcomb It's that time of year when lists by the dozens start making their way into magazines, blogs, tweets and over the airwaves.  I'm adding to all of that by forwarding this one along.  In fact, I may even add to those before the years is up.  Actually, I probably won't add until the year has past by a few days.
