By Mark Evans | Published: March 31, 2008
It certainly wasn’t the goal but I stirred up a hornet’s nest yesterday with a post entitled “Why Original Blog Thought is so Difficult”. Just a few more thoughts – with no intention to poke the nest again – in light of a lot of comments and blog posts. 1. It’s not that there’s a lack [...]
