Quote of the Day
"The benefits of blogging and social media are obvious – the medium allows for a meritocracy of ideas and a fluid hierarchy made up of the people who share them. A hungry person, focused on learning, sharing and self-improvement can go very far. A thirsty person who doesn’t check his or herself will not go far. They will be stunted by their own rhetoric."
(Josh Brown)
