Poking around the intersection of KM and Social Media
We tend to think of our lives in terms of the number of trips we’ve made around the sun. By that count, I’m on my 57th trip as I write this. Although time seems to fly by faster as we grow older, years are still rather abstract. The years of a way of sneaking up […]
I ran my first half marathon as a teenager back in Indiana. It was sponsored by the local McDonalds, who fed us something they claimed were pancakes.
