Everyone seems to be increasingly fearful of our current economic situation. So much so that I have stopped paying attention to the variety of "warnings" and "suggestions" altogether.

I started this blog over a year ago now. At the time, I was interested in further exploring my passion for innovation, technology and business. As a bonus (I was hoping), my experience would also allow me to share any interesting findings with others along the way. Alas, it's been ...
