Following the lead of the great professional services thinker David Maister, we’re taking a blogging break.

As Seth Godin observed years ago, beware the CEO (or corporate) blog! While the benefits can be great, so is the time and effort required. An English proverb sums it well, “Effort is important, but knowing where to make an effort makes all the difference!”

We’ll see you again when we’re able to meet at least four of the factors that Seth believes make a blog work:

• Candor
• Urgency
• Timeliness
• Pithiness and
• Controversy
• (maybe Utility if you want six).

Forbes Magazine has a tradition of pointing out publicly traded companies with no revenues or assets and with unusual market values. I stumbled on one today, Global Holdings, Inc. (GOHG.OB). The company has no revenue, no assets, and no particular line of business that I can see, but has a market capitalization of $9 million. I guess having a current 10-K filing and having met all the public filing requirements is worth something…?
