You or me. Despite what my wife says, it isn’t me….

Glad you enjoyed the series….it just dawned on me that I should have asked you as well…ooops sorry.

You and each of the contributor’s really made local search a fun pond to play in during 2008.

As Mark Twain said. “A person with a new idea is a crank until the idea succeeds.”

Its VERY worthwhile. Lots of wonderful commentators with experience covering a lot of topics. On the one hand there is a lot of agreement that both David’s and your articles on the elements that impact Local/Maps were incredibly vital. I agree with all those comments. On the other hand, the wide variety of commentators referenced all sorts of gems that I had missed. Its a terrific package and summary of commentary on local. Great idea/Good work.
