Reading Time: < 1 minute I listened to Crocs earning call this evening. The numbers look good, it beats the Street expecation as I expected. They also raised Q1 2007 and 2007 full year guidance. Some of the interesting developments: 1) Nascar cross licensing (cross sell). Since they started Disney relationship in summer 2006, they expanded to NFL, NCAA football, NHL
Reading Time: < 1 minute I am not talking about the tips in the restaurants; I am talking about the stocks going up after we sell them, doesn’t that happen all the time? Just like it goes down after we bought it? My most recent example is New Oriental (EDU, it seems to me the traders did not take too
Reading Time: < 1 minute Source: Google CN and Yahoo China (Why did not baidu come up with something?) I noticed Yahoo (US version) has lots of pictures about Lunar New Year. While Chinese young generation are embracing the western holidays such as Christmas and Valentine’s Day (in some ways western holidays are overshadowing the most important Chinese holiday), western world
Reading Time: < 1 minute Google Checkout is doing promotion again. I found this while I Googled “Heelys”. Here are the links for Heelys. I think the $10 off can be applied to other things too.

Reading Time: < 1 minute I was a bit surprised to see Dixie Chicks won the “album of the year” award. I was happy because it’s a band I like.

Amazon asks for $99.99 and Zappos asks for $138.95.
Reading Time: < 1 minute Shoebuy is having a sale on Crocs, the $10 off discount code is WWMAG. They don’t have many left though, so hurry up if you want to get a pair. I found Crocs shoes are actually gender-neutral, as you can see from the size definition, e.g., size 4 stands for Women 6/Men 4. I think people choose the
Reading Time: < 1 minute It’s Superbowl time. Time to get the HDTV. Here is Vizio 50″ from Circuit City. Note I am not getting any referring fee from them. I heard Superbowl is the big time for HDTV sales. Some retailors such as Best Buy, Circuit City should be very happy.
