Dave — Tue, 06 Dec 2011 03:57:00 +0000

When it comes to business, everything old is new again. It’s the 1950’s advertising over and over with a different and more creative spin supported by the technology which drives it. People haven’t changed that much. If you’ve been paying attention this post is an example itself of “The Working Girl Effect.”
