Check this out. Wonderful piece about our remarkable Studio at the Peachtree Pine building. If more people were exposed to all the great things that happen in our building, we would have all the support we need.

Something is clearly wrong because every major sports team here is for sale in one form or fashion, and labor unrest threatens next year’s football and basketball seasons and a move out of town threatens the Thrashers.

Turning 50 opens up many new and exciting opportunities, including never-ending invitations to join AARP, receiving “the list” of qualified gastroenterologists for nocturnal colon exploration, and daily pill taking (baby aspirin, niacin, and fish oil in my case) that is sure to grow, not shrink in the years ahead.

Last week I completed the sale of my first company, A.D.A.M., Inc. to Ebix, Inc., in a transaction valued at over $90 million. In Atlanta, it was a very quiet event as A.D.A.M. passed to new ownership. We are most proud to be part of the Ebix team. Robin and his colleagues have built a […]

As one of the first companies in the country to recognize and embrace social media, I am asked why ThePort Network has not achieved a fraction of the financial success attributed to the Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn and other social networking companies.

(Blogger’s Note: This incident happened to me on a quick overnight trip to New York in early December, 2010) In a New York minute, it happened.
