So, at the beginning of 2012, we picked a website that we owned, to make it awesome. There are other sites where you can learn about famous people, but you have to read ten to fifteen paragraphs to find that information.

Thus, I was inspired when I heard about the impact collaboration-in-the-cloud innovator Central Desktop made at the April 2012 San Francisco ad:tech conference.
