Some things to think about…
This post continues the series I’ve been writing as I reflect on 2010. This has been neat thinking through some of the things I aimed for in the New Years post I wrote last year and what actually happened.

I read an interesting article a couple weeks ago about a little known guy named Ron Wayne who is actually one of the founders of Apple Computers. You can read the article for the details on his story but it was fascinating to read some of the comments from this guy who sold away […]
