George,
As always, thanks, I think. I’m actually glad to hear you like the Random Thoughts posts. I wasn’t sure how well those were going since they were new. They don’t generate that many comments but they aren’t really meant to. And I promise, postmortems to come.

Tac, as always I think you are totally full of … well your blog is good for a laugh .. um I mean .. heck man I read your blog more than I do the WSJ! Keep it coming. I find your random thoughts to be the most thought provoking as they spin directly out of what you are experiencing right now. In the SMB market much of the work is around ensuring the trains run on time and not around strategic thinking. It takes a while to get to that level. Your footprints allow someone to follow the path without having to tread it themselves.

Final note, I would like to see some post-mortem posts. What didn’t work and why? What was the measure going into it and what was the result – at a high level of course. ROI in the new media space is still very challenging to quantify.

Here’s to great minds! Cheers!

Hi Tac,

It was my great pleasure meeting you and spending time with you. I am in the process of writing about the HP ebook program — I think it will be a wonderful resource for readers.

And I agree with the other commenter when he called you a loose cannon (oops! scratch that part, ha ha ha!).

I meant, ahem, I agree with him about the case studies. Most small businesses would benefit from hearing what works and what doesn’t, and why or why not. Think of it as helping “show them the way.”

Looking forward to hearing a lot more from you, Tac!

Anita

Dave, I still owe you a meeting. I haven’t forgotten.

Brian, Thanks, and that kind of insight is exactly what I hope to be able to provide.

Tac, it has been a wild year for you, but well deserved. You are doing great things. I think HP made the right choice in bringing a loose cannon like you on board to head this thing up.

I would be interested in hearing about your case studies at HP (i.e. what is working and what is not). Unlike many of us with limited budgets, you have a little room for trial and error.

Keep up the good work. Congrats on all you have accomplished this year and keep us all posted on the latest and greatest tools like always.
