Hey, Tom.

Man, Version 3 seems like a rehash of all the information in #2 with updated values for 2008. I liked v.3 more since I had seen it first, though.

Great posts.

Great post. I have seen some of the videos, but still they are very impressive!

Shift happens as we speak!

Hi Tom. Loved v4. Superb piece of unique design from your team. Its surprising how you can take a basic list format and turn it compelling content. Looks easy but is remarkably hard to execute!
