		<description><![CDATA[I was genuinely saddened by the news of Kodak&#8217;s latest moment: filing for bankruptcy. The good news is that for every Kodak there are literally hundreds of new start-ups doing what Kodak should have been doing: filling the void to provide socially-enabled photo-sharing, video-sharing, the latest digital image capture/manipulation, and other digital technology ad infinitum.

One day earlier this month, I got up for my morning routine and went to pack my breakfast &#8211; which, since my wife became a nutrition coach and got me on a solid path, usually consists of some whole grains and fresh fruit.

Business models are funny things. In the Internet Age, the right business model at the right time can catapult a company to fame and fortune practically overnight. Groupon, Zynga and others are a testament to this.

		<description><![CDATA[Virtually every site I&#8217;ve worked with in recent years has had need for dependent drop downs of some nature.
Usually implementing a dependent drop down consists one of two options:  Outputting every option into a JavaScript method, or invoking an Ajax call to get the next set of options.

		<description><![CDATA[Using Salesforce Apex, establishing a relationship between leads and campaigns should be as simple as setting the campaign id on a standard field on the lead.  After all, if you take a look at a lead's detail page, the lead has a lookup to campaigns.  Unfortunately, establishing that relationship is a bit convoluted.
