Take a Survey, Win an iPod

Posted on September 19, 2011 at 9:43am 0 Comments

Dr. Devendra Potins from the School of Information Sciences, at the University of Tennessee is conducting a survey, that should yield some really cool results.

Social Media Changes for EOK

Posted on April 27, 2011 at 4:24pm 0 Comments

Change is here for EOK. There is a lot happening behind the scenes that I feel fortunate to be a part of. These amazing things that we are doing, do however, take a lot of work. Four months ago, I didn't have any real concept of just what being a board member involved. Wow, I really had my eyes…

A couple of years ago, my wife, we'll call her C, and I were driving through down town Knoxville. It was a cold, early winter day. That kind of overcast, damp, November day that makes you cold on the inside. We passed a homeless man without a coat, quite obviously cold by his huddled up, hands-in-pockets stance. C tells me to stop the car and she starts to get out. "Baby,… Continue

Glad to be here Brian. It was a 90's model Ford Explorer if I am remembering correctly. It got me here and I commend the advertising approach.

Hi Brian,

I enjoyed hearing about your business yesterday and talking to you for a few minutes. You offer valuable services. I am on the welcoming committee with EOK and wanted to welcome you to EOK. I am fairly new to EOK myself so I'm not always sure who is new or who is an older member that I haven't met yet. I wish you all the luck with your new venture. I'm sure that you'll be successful. Check out the different groups available within EOK. They are listed on the website. I hope you are having a great day!
