In order to strike the right balance between marketing to the masses and generating revenue, organizations should do two things right away.

Keith Brophy will be discussing new tech trends for 2011 that will effect the way we do business, connect with one another, and what we can look forward to in the future.

    Obama talking about the importance of investing in wireless technology in Marquette, MI, up north last Thursday, Feb. 10, 2011.
