Most times when I have computer problems or when internet goes down, it’s like being dead in the water. Like yesterday the motherboard on my Dell Inspirion 5150 started to go wacky, intermittently causing the screen to go black, requiring a reboot each time until I get a replacement. Then today our internet was down for about 5 hours. All I needed next was for the phone system to go on the blink.
So what happened? A ton of new business inquiries, a speaking engagement, interviews with Inc Magazine and US News & World Report and we signed a new client. Not so dead in the water after all. I did miss eComXpo though, but I can blog about that next week since they provide access for 90 days.
