This last year (2009) was the most challenging ever for me, both personally and professionally. Good times, tough problems, people that transformed my heart, and ideas that changed my perspective. It wasn’t always easy, but each challenge had its own reward.
I’m looking forward to writing a bit more this year, opening the conversation up about [...]

One of my New Year’s resolutions is to create–and help to create–the world’s first VRM applications in 2009. There are more than [...]

If you’re going to bet your company on a platform, pick the open one.

This did. Hans Rosling talking about the state of the world: third world, health, wealth, changes over time. Great data. Great presentation. Worth thinking about.
In addition to the impactful visualization of the worldwide transitions in wealth & health since 1960, Hans also makes extremely [...]
