    Isn’t that life?

    pur­pose, or motive?

    Maybe this one would should be retit­led as “Big Busi­ness PR on the back of busi­ness cards.“
    Hugh, we love you. We think the car­toons and social objects dis­cus­sion is worth it. We’re also glad you’re making money doing what you love. So that said, the next sen­tence isn’t about you.
    Mic­ro­soft is still lame des­pite hiring you.

    Anon, usually I delete anony­mous com­ments like yours, but what the hell, I thought I’d let this one go…
    If I can help make Mic­ro­soft even 1% bet­ter, that’s still crea­ting a lot of value.
    Besi­des that, they’re a really inte­res­ting com­pany to work with. Some inte­res­ting folk live there.
    An of course, I get to be REALLY EVIL which I really, really like ;-)

    what we could really use, in ame­rica, is a poli­ti­cian or two who defi­ned evil the way you do. :>)

    Hey Hugh,
    I can’t stand face­book. I’m out of it.
    Let’s do something about this social can­cer called Face­book. I’m an MD.

    I think this sum­ma­ri­zes a lot that’s wrong with MS.
    Will you improve them 1%, or will they drag you down 10%?

  9. Hugh,
    This really says it all. I chuc­kle when peo­ple ask me, “Why are you spen­ding time net­wor­king, blog­ging, and mee­ting peo­ple for cof­fee? Shouldn’t you be wor­king? As if cold calling and spam­ming peo­ple is “the right way to do busi­ness. Peo­ple want to do busi­ness with peo­ple they know and trust, and who know and trust them as well. I plan to keep this one handy (Mic­ro­soft, please do not sue me) to show to peo­ple in the future. Thanks.
