Jim, Making choices is one thing; following through with them is another… sharing them with others takes courage. Thank you for trusting us with them.

My decision to join The Third Tribe has been invaluable because of the people I have met- you are one of those people.

I will always be in your corner.

Very awesome Jim. I’m so proud of you for all the great choices you’ve made. Had you not made any one of them, our paths might never have crossed.

And I am VERY glad they did.

Keep choosing…and making the best of all the choices you do make!

Alison – Funny I’ve been sending out a lot of cards myself the past couple weeks. It’s a logical extension of everything we do in the social media world really. Glad you enjoyed the post. I may actually pick up my dead tree version of USAToday tomorrow morning as I leave the hotel instead of just stepping over it

Greg – Comments like this from people who have known me for so long mean more than I can possibly express in words. Thank you for not only taking the time to come read but also to comment. Looking forward to running into at a trade show sometime soon!

Michael – as always I appreciate your perspective. Even more when I am actually in the same time zone as you. *waves” from down in Huntington Beach.

I think print is way too ubiquitous for it to ever completely die. And there are inherent benefits to the print medium versus computers/phones. I’m not sure I have the energy to detail those benefits right now, but I do want you to know that because of this post I am now writing a snail mail letter to a friend. It’s something I think is lovely and heartfelt, but often forget to do, in favor of email or text message. Sure, email is more convenient, but that card received in the mail will sure be a lot more special.

I have known and shared business (and fun) successfully with Jim many times over the past 20 some odd years.

Jim you were always insightful and with purpose but who knew, you would also now be saliently eloquent. Great stuff thank you. Greg

Print is not dead. But then, magnetic recording tape, microfilm, vinyl records are not dead either. There is just a lot less of it than 20 years ago. I still buy food in printed packages, but I no longer am interested in the printed catalogs, newspapers, magazines or books. More importantly, my children are not either. So, it is not dead, it is not dying – it is just getting smaller as faster and new ways to communicate stories and images digitally become more popular.
