Speaking of the WTO (last post). . . They just released their 2005 World Trade Report (executive summary)(pdf file). This is a lengthy document so if you want the full report you’ll have to go to their website.

I just sent in my request for credentials for this December’s Hong Kong Ministerial of the World Trade Organization. I’m seeking a sponsor of my coverage of this extremely important event to all of U-S agriculture, especially from a marketing standpoint.

I’ve been involved in more discussions about how to “track” news releases in the last few weeks than I can remember.

This is a test of a streaming audio file that I’m trying out. Please ignore. Thanks.

This is why you need a client in Florida when you live in the midwest. After yesterday’s blogging seminar we re-located to an undisclosed west coast of Florida location to spend the night.

It’s energy bill discussion week in Washington, DC (when hasn’t it been lately?) and the President is out and about.

This looks like a very handy guide to have if you’re going to delve into the blogoshpere.
