Reader Appreciation: The Code
They say acquiring new customers is ten times more expensive than servicing current ones. I’m not sure that equation translates to blog readers. And even if it does, unless we start selling Jason English tank tops and book covers, this whole paragraph is largely irrelevant.
Nevertheless, I should nurture the relationship with current readers. And since Nick Coder recently identified himself as an occasional visitor, we’ll start with him.
Coder and I watched a lot of TV together at Duke. His viewer’s commentary was always enjoyable, rivaling the best DVD extra. In the above photo, The Code is on the right. On the left is Jon Ferris, known in most circles as Coder’s old roommate. Perhaps that’s why he fled North America.
Now feels like a good time to mention Ferris’ website. Jon and his girlfriend (now fiancée) Kristen have been tooling around the southern hemisphere, blogging all the while. Catch up on their South American adventures at Otras Perspectivas. The most recent post was written by a visiting Coder, tying this all up quite nicely.
If you’re interested in joining Coder in the spotlight, just raise your hand.
