Headsprout

Greg Stikeleather's been a good friend (and friend of the court for DavidCo) almost since our inception. Lately he's been CEO'ing for a great company - Headsprout -  in Seattle, doing phenomenal work with teaching kids to read. From his e-mail today...

If you have any friends or clients that have "Ensure child's reading  success and academic future while having fun at the same time" on their To-Do list for their 4- to 7-year-olds, please send them to  www.headsprout.com. It was just announced this week that Kaplan's  SCORE!  Educational Centers are going to be using Headsprout Early Reading in their learning centers throughout the country. If you're not near a SCORE! Center, Headsprout is available from any Internet-connected computer. Word-of-mouth has been very powerful for us, as it has been for you (and is for all great products and services!). To reinforce word-of-mouth in your network, anyone who signs up to use Headsprout Early Reading after the free trial lessons and enters the promo code "davidco" will receive 10% off.

Geeking with Eric

What fun... taking off from my wall-to-wall world for a day, drove up to Pine Mountain Club to just hang out with my long-time propellor head buddy and technologist - Eric Mack. We're going to be blogging, podcasting, skype-ing, and miscellaneous snorting around all the productivity bleeding edges, and running down the rabbit trails. Sometimes that's the priority...!
