I can remember when I was so impressed with a fax machine, 286 computers or even a Pentium. It seems that technology has changed now more than ever. The second you buy a computer, a faster one is introduced two days later. The world we live in now is all about communication in real-time – whether that is with constant use of your cell phone or emailing thru your blackberry while you are driving. As another way to communicate with our clients, industry contacts and become more relevant we have decided to set up our own research blog. From time to time you will here from my colleagues at M/A/R/C. In addition we will be posting industry resources, conference calendars and plenty of commentary on things.
Our goal is that our contacts use this as another way to increase their knowledge base and will participate when appropriate to have a very engaging and ongoing dialogue.
We look forward to hearing from you in the near future.

Merrill,
This is a wonderful vehicle to alert folks of unique situations occuring in our ever changing world of research. A great example would be the names of folks who have helped built this industry and have either retired and/or moved to clipboards in the sky. We are losing such valuable information that they have
achieved over the years, which still applies today. A great conversation with Bill Neal took place in DC recently where we
were reliving some great moments of our history.
Perhaps someone could volunteer to write a book on our history. Wouldn’t it become a best seller with people like Pat Galloway and his forever popular stories of back when?
The wonderful women who believed in gathering information and how they went about accomplishing this amazing feat.
Of course, new technology and how it developed and exploded
and what the future holds with the changing of the times, and
how do we expect to survive?
We should be very careful with presentation and comments. Rules do apply for any and every response. Do you plan on monitoring comments?
Merrill Dubrow says:
