		<description>aww, thanks, that's very sweet of you :) I wasn't having a real melt down.. it was me responding to.. . a world of social media strategy. There's a kind of social media sub genera that's.... all about marketing and communications.. these are the folks who are essentially helping to shepherd business into this space.

What I'm doing is a little different.. I'm developing a kinda "area 51" school of business, that radically rethinks business.. in large measure for the social media thing.. but it has a long term vision of social media that is far beyond where most people in the space have even started to imagine.

So.. my program has a kind of long term curve to it.. which means I'm not really chasing short term success.. and by the short term definitions.. which is mainly what you get from the shepherd's... you'd probably thinking I'm off track.. 

So what's happening in this blog entry is.. I'm wrestling with this sorta stuff.. in a sorta surface-e way... or that's at least a clue as to what this entry is about.</description>

		<description>I think my laptop dies for two weeks, you have minor meltdown while I'm gone.  In the immortal words of Cher, "Snap out of it!"  Your blog is a good source of product information/review about all the products you use.  You document the features both nifty and otherwise very well.  All your work has a progress out line through the blog, giving those of us who can manage to keep up a sense of feeling included in what you're doing.  Blah blah, yadda yadda, etc etc, I repeat myself ad naseum: I think you're on to something and if you ever quit, I'll hound you till you start again.  There's your ringing endorsement for the week.</description>
