By on June 6, 2011 in social media

For the last year or two, there have been two Twitter chats that I regularly participate in. The Sunday night #blogchat discussion about all things blog-related and Tuesday night #AgChat where farmers, ranchers and friends talk about producing food, feed & fiber. Tomorrow night (Tuesday, June 7 — 8 to 10 pm eastern) #AgChat will [...]

A year ago, I was proud to be a volunteer on the team of people launching the AgChat Foundation. And I must admit, while there was a real rush of adrenaline associated with the Foundation’s launch, there was some sense of wonder about whether a small group of people could start such an ambitious project [...]

By on November 10, 2009 in social media

I’ve been a fan of Letterman forever it seems.  Went to the show a couple of times when I was living in NY metro.  I even sent out Christmas cards one year that was a photo of me and Mujibar… one of the sales guys at the souvenir shop next to the theater.  (That was [...]

By on November 8, 2009 in social media

We all studied the industrial revolution that increased the way we could mass produce things in demand.  And most of us in mainstream agriculture have participated in the biotech revolution.
