Which one of your six points do you think is least likely to happen (i.e., least confident in)? Nice analysis BTW. Also, did you post this on G+? If so, what was the reaction there?
The Social Layer: Six Thoughts On Where Google Plus Is Going
I've been deeply immersed in Google Plus for the last week or so, not only following what's being said about the service but actually using it, kicking the tires and making observations along the way. For what it's worth, I think Google Plus has an incredible amount of potential for a number o...
So, Chloe is joining Larsen Jensen as a SEAL after 2012? ;-)
According to the video, Mark Schubert gave Chloe a second chance. Will US Swimming give Mark a second chance, or had he simply run out of chances?

I'm Joining Edelman
Last April I informed you that I would be making a move to join what is now known as The Dachis Group and re-locating to Austin. It was an opportunity that I felt like I could not pass up and being hand picked to join a team of this caliber was enticing to say the least. Since then, not everythi...
