There were several large pieces of news, and product...

Only one, maybe two more actual stories this week, but I spoke with so many great people and companies I didn’t want to let them just slip by. However, the news waits for no one, therefore I must pull my nose out of my notes and get back to the present. So as a compromise I’m using this week’s blog to talk...
