Forget Death Panels. The event of the evening will be the Presidential Death Match. “In this corner we have B. Hussein Obama, lightweight, barely weighing 170 pounds. He has never won a title fight in his entire anemic political career. And in this corner, the entire GOP fat cats and most of America, salivating at [...]

I was listening to Gary Vaynerchuk* yesterday deliver a talk to publishers and indie bookstore owners. At some point in the talk, he encourages everyone to have some sort of freemium pricing model.

I think that if you don’t already know that name and you care about the health care debate in this country, you should take a few minutes to read up on him. He is rather easy to find. His blog is here. As the health care debate heats up over the next year or so [...]
