Up Goes the Economy...

... and down goes the frequency of articles on this blog.

If you are a regular reader, you have probably come to expect a new review of web-based business technologies each week. Not only is that not going to happen this week, it is unlikely to happen more than a few times in the next 6 weeks. That is because the volume of new business coming our way has made it impossible to explore new technologies.

I move within a community of technology consultants, and it seems to be this experience is fairly widespread right now. August was fairly intense, September quite intense, and October coming on like a lion. Hopefully you and your business have been able to benefit from what appears to be an upswing in the economy. If not, I think it is likely you soon will.

I'm not going to dare to prognosticate the end of the global recession, but at the very least it seems that other than a few specific industries (construction, real estate, etc.) the decline has at least stopped. Companies are realizing they can't run on fumes any longer, and that if they want to meet the opportunities before them, they are going to have to start investing in their business's growth again, whether that be by hiring staff or by implementing labor saving technologies.

I'm very excited about some new members of the AspiraTech team who have been brought on-board to meet increasing client demand for a wider and wider array of technology consultation services. We also have a new AppExchange application coming out within the next few weeks, that I will write more about upon release. And then there is DreamForce coming quickly behind. Good times.

So please bear with us through this busy period. Looking forward to bringing you more time-saving reviews of the best new apps as they come to our attention - as soon as we have time!
