			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Client deliverables have prevented me from doing much blogging in recent weeks.&#160; Which is a bummer, but I was on a roll with the series I was doing on <a href="http://shinynewtoy.com/blog/2008/11/13/about-yahoo-pipes-and-using-it-in-an-intelligence-dashboard/">intelligence dashboards</a>.&#160; I’ll pick that up again after the holiday weekend.</p>
<p>But with the Thanksgiving holiday in mind, I thought I would take some time go give some thanks.&#160; So here goes.</p>
<p><strong>Thanks to Jeremy from the Cupertino Union School District.</strong>&#160; Jeremy is just the perfect client.&#160; Really cooperative, super patient, eager to learn, and an all-around nice guy.&#160; All of our clients should be just like you, Jeremy.&#160; You perfectly emulate the idea of being our partner.&#160; Not our client.</p>
<p><strong>Thanks to Sam Lawrence and his </strong><a href="http://gobigalways.com"><strong>Go Big Always</strong></a><strong> blog.</strong> Over the past year, that blog has been my favorite.&#160; I love the combination of snarky satire, humor, and richly valued substance. And no blog that I read on a regular basis seems to have the production value that goes into each post that Sam puts into his.&#160; Just take a look at some of the graphics he includes with his post.&#160; Amazing.&#160; Sam recently had some big change in his life and is going through a less than ideal time.&#160; I wish him well and look forward to when he returns to “go big”.</p>
<p><strong>Thanks to the people at Twitter.&#160; </strong>I don’t know why you turned down a gazillion dollars from Facebook, but I’m awfully glad you did.&#160; If my friends ever start super-poking me on Twitter, I’m pulling the ripcord.</p>
<p><strong>Thanks to </strong><a href="http://hollyhagen.com"><strong>Holly</strong></a><strong> for being the perfect business partner</strong>. Couldn’t do any of this without her.&#160; Even after all these years, working with Holly is a fresh and exciting as it was in the beginning.&#160; And most importantly, it’s a lot of fun.&#160; </p>
<p><strong>Finally, thanks to my family for all the support.</strong>&#160; Keturah, Mason and Jude.&#160; I love you all.</p>
