I&#8217;m happy to say that all these years of tilting at windmills, trying to get folks to think holistically about eCommerce with respect to front-office CRM are beginning to pay off.  In a recent Gartner report cited in a terrific software blog by Louis Columbus, he cites Gartner giving equal heft to eCommerce priorities relative to  <a href="http://blog.edlconsulting.com/ecommerce/like-wow%e2%80%a6when-did-ecommerce-crash-the-crm-party/" class="more-link">More &#62;</a>]]></description>

		<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.
