Long ago, and far far away … I would gather clips, quotations, and other items that were intellectually stimulating to me.
Sometimes, I would share them with people.
Other times I would just collect them.
All the while thinking and dreaming of doing a podcast or show to share what I found.
Today – the first episode of that show was released: Starting Cube
Starting Cube as a brand and name was not what I was focusing on. A little while ago I picked up one of the rare 4 character .com domain names. It’s easy to find them, but most of the time some cyber squatter wants between $3,000 and $15,000 for the right to have and keep it.
ANSP.com was registered, and I fully intended on using it for the short version of the show. I even asked for help from friends & set up a few “test episodes”.
Last night, with today being the deadline, I was talking with my wonderful wife about the S and P parts. I really liked Success for “s”, but could not pick up any of the Success<“p”something>.com domain names, like I wanted. I decided to use ANSP as a media production company (though I am not sure if “p” shall stand for production or product long term) … or Ally Nation Success Productions … freeing me up to name the show whatever I wanted (and could get the domain for).
Starting Cube is intended to be a short regular podcast focusing on thought & ideas that lead to success.
Episode & Cube 1 is released (we view cubes as the clip, quotation, etc). [mp3]
