Dan Bolton said… - I'm impressed with the pioneering work of Red 7 Media in capturing the wisdom of the crowd. The mediaPRO experience was simple starting earlier today with Tony's invitation. I'm writing from San Francisco where we at M2Media360 are just beginning the task of providing category buyers at supermarkets the advantages of a social networking site. You may find the work of Axel Schultze at Xeequa.com of interest. He was named top SF Entrepreneur in voting last week and will be featured in the AMEX OPEN publication. Xeequa is rough yet but the idea of using these tools to establish global business alliances has merit.
Your portrait in turn-outs caught my eye. I worked three years for the City of Manhattan and later the State of Kansas as a firefighter. I believe then as today that the finest men, like steel, are tempered by fire.
