The Industry Standard: Guest Blog: Tom Hespos



Sayonara

It's my last day as guest blogger here at The Industry Standard. ([Sniff] I promised myself I wouldn't cry...)

Anyway, I just wanted to say thanks to Matt McAlister and everybody else here for letting me guest blog this week. It's been a trip. Hopefully, y'all have enjoyed it as much as I have. When I pitched Matt on being a guest blogger, I let him know how glad I was that TheStandard.com has been resurrected, as it used to be a several-times-daily stop on the web for me and I was happy to see it well on its way to achieving its former prominence.

Some parting words...


  1. Don't forget to read your Fark every day
  2. Be sure to take regular breaks from staring at your computer monitor so that your eyes don't melt. Take a walk outside for a bit. Try geocaching if you haven't already.
  3. Enjoy the resurgence of the Internet biz. (Just don't bet little Billy's college fund on a dot com IPO like last time.)

Take care.
