The world of technology

Okay so the biggest challenge I think I face today is being able to unplug. In an ever increasing world of instant on I lack that switch to turn it off. This is both a positive and a negative. I love being able to answer questions from our clients as they come in, but when I really should be taking a break and relaxing I feel lost. I think that part of this is a product of my age and growing up in this wired world, but I need to learn how to turn off the gadgets once in a while.

Along this wired note I am really excited about this solution. This will be a very powerful tool that will allow us to be in constant contact with our clients and be a truly mobile team. We will be able to send and recieve emails while on the road from our phones as well as update contacts and schedule meetings. take a look at it and see for yourself some of the advantages.

Oh yeah did I mention I need to find a way to unplug...
