I just wanted to put up a quick post and bid 2008 a happy farewell! I’m looking forward to 2009. We live in interesting times. 2009 will certainly bring some interesting twist and turns.
On new years resolutions - don’t make them! They never work. Create a real plan that works. Set real goals. I suggest [...]

I hope you had a great Christmas. I spent a lot of time catching up on reading and writing blog posts. First up, I wanted to comment on where I think careers are going in the next 10 years. Why the next 10 years? Because its going to take that long to recover. That said [...]

OK, well Hell has frozen over. After a couple of years of bagging heavily on Twitter, Janet got me to sign up today. Here’s the story:
Last night I was at Scott Lemon’s house and he was showing me a couple of cool projects he’s working on. He then showed me some cool apps related to [...]
I was just sitting here thinking about my day. Earlier I talked to local web wonderdude, John Jonas. The guy is working on a very cool idea that saves people a lot of money. I then had a friend call me on the way home with a good business idea. He wanted to know my [...]
Yesterday I attended a UTC event about selling in a down market. Don Cash, the VP of sales at Omniture, led out the discussion and he did a great job! I took down some notes and I thought I’d share them here with you. Ninety-nine percent of the information I heard was not new to [...]
