I was approached years ago by several companies that wanted me to appear on their TV show. Boy they painted a great picture of the demographics of the audience, and the benefits of appearing.  It was really interesting until the gotcha,  it will only cost me $5,000, $10,000 or some other amount. Excuse me?  Guests […]

I’m a participant on a finance orientated Slack Channel.  There are 3,700 participants, obviously not all active and of those who are active I’d say the majority are in the SaaS game.

I just had a discussion on LinkedIn where the author of the post and I disagreed. He said I was wrong because my claim as to his position were mistaken. While nothing new, this time the disagreement was over his words versus his meaning. Note: I removed his name from any post. The message He […]

Mr. Pichai, It would seem my private email server has been assigned a less than stellar reputation due to my error (ok, stupidity). The domain/IP address of my server had, for a brief time, an incorrectly configured DKIM record. I send one message to a mailing list of approx. 20,000 names, once a week. About […]
