KIND READERS: Getting to know you over the past few weeks has been a rare honor — one that truly humbles me at times. To better serve you, and strengthen the Get A Life column, my editor Pixeleen Mistral and I met with the Herald’s consultants at Monkey Business Consulting to “take the initiative in achieving a leadership role in the field of virtual online tabloid journalism” as the consultants put it. Consultants really have a way with words, don’t they?

Pixeleen was particularly concerned that we understand our audience’s needs – are you turned on by Symphorphilia (natural disasters), Aquaphilia (desire for underwater relations or mermaids) – or does it take something else?

“We need actionable data mining paradigms that can beef up the big enchilada of electronic new media frontierism,” said consultant Ouchquack Stern. “We need a barnburner methodology to tap into the tacit knowledge of our user base.” [editor: do a survey?]

With that in mind, I’m starting a series of reader surveys. You can participate by CLICKING HERE and voting for your favorite fetish. We’ll fill you in on our findings soon.

Thanks,
Heartun Breaker
