I love when things have multiple applications. If you know anything about me you know I’m a total geek when it comes to new technologies. Whether it’s something that does the job of five other machines or simply a lesson that can be applied to multiple areas of life, from business to personal and beyond, …
Have you ever rented a movie that comes with the extras at the end? You know, like interviews with the actors and directors, deleted scenes, behind the scenes, etc. Well that’s usually where I start.

The times they are a changin’… About 10 seconds ago I couldn’t remember which artist sang those words, then POOF I had the answer thanks to good ol’ Google. It was Bob Dylan, by the way… Information is so readily available to us now that there’s no excuse not to be educated and informed. Think …
