I am happy to report that today is Friday and we are looking at highs near 40 this weekend.

* The telecom industry keeps changing by leaps and bounds lately. The latest thing I came across is www.grandcentral.com which aims to unify all of your phones and voicemail under one phone number. Free if you have just two to consolidate. What is interesting, is that people can call your grandcentral phone number, and your cell/home/work/etc phones all ring at the same time. By pressing * during the call, you can transfer the call from cell to home or vice versa to save on minutes. NYT has a good article on it: http://www.nytimes.com/2007/03/15/technology/15pogue.html?_r=1&ref=technology&oref=slogin

* Retailers are often measured in success by the sales they generate per square foot. Saks: $362/square foot. Best Buy: $930. Tiffany & Co: $2666. Apple Inc. came in at a whopping $4032 with their iPod and computer stores. http://money.cnn.com/magazines/fortune/fortune_archive/2007/03/19/8402321/index.htm
