New format for this blog: my business research, findings and application

Salem Honey — Wed, 18 Jun 2008 17:45:42 -0400

Previously, I have been posting articles which I have written, or interesting articles I liked in the past. I like the candor of fast company, and believe this could be a great opportunity to "brain storm" in a research-like fashion with others.

Meaning, I do a lot of research online. Product, feasibility, SEO (I'm still learning the mid-level basics) and more. Combining my thoughts, and interesting finds will hopefully give others a jumpstart on their own companies.

Cheers!

I write about how cities change, how design makes work and society fairer, and how architecture and real estate collide. I come to this work as a native New Yorker and lapsed MBA, and I love to convey how grand ideas take new shapes as they move from one person's brain to the public realm. I live in Lower Manhattan with my wife and daughter.
