Just wanted to make a quick personal announcement coupled to a shameless plug. I have decided to take on a great little company as a 7DS Incubator client, but go well beyond the norm for such an engagement, because I believe this company has the potential to bring about real change to the industry.

If anyone is attending the Inman conference in NYC next week, and have no plans for lunch on Wednesday the 12th, consider joining me, Mark Boyland, and others for a fun-filled (okay, maybe not, given the topic) informal lunch-a-ma-thingamajig.

A quick housekeeping note. I realized the other day that there are a fair number of you who read this blog via email. Which is great, even though I’d much prefer if you’d come by afterwards and share your thoughts, opinions, and so on. So I’ve decided to make a small investment and give you … Read more
