Just discovered this very cool, free, widget called Speak Pipe. It’s a great way to foster more human engagement on a website via an instant voice message — with a simple click of a button. Feel free to try it by clicking the version at the upper right. You can also add a tab for it on your Facebook business page. Check out mine.
If you’ve got an extra few million lying around there still may be time you get your Super Bowl ad on TV in your local market. So, here’s some advice on how to create one:
Use a baby, or an animal. Babies work especially well if they: a) Talk. b) Sing. c) Dance.
Regarding animals, dogs are preferred. However, chimps, baboons, guerrillas, lizards, mice, frogs, pigs, cats, chickens, rabbits, squirrels, raccoons, goldfish, ostriches, any kind of bear, and elephants are all acceptable. Avoid snakes and insects. And, as with babies, talking, singing or dancing is highly recommended. Good luck!

So, whether you’re in the job hunt or not, the question still is: How good is yours?
