Video Interview with Business POV

Businesspov

I have felt for a while that the combination of broadband and video editing was bound to change the way short form video is produced and consumed. The line between newspapers and traditional broadcast is clearly starting to blur when major print outlets start to produce their own video for their web site.  A great example of a trail blazer in this area is Mark Scheffler at Business POV here in Chicago.  Mark was a former Crain's Chicago reporter and has struck out on his own.  Check out his site at http://www.business.pov.

He was nice enough to stop by the office and listen to me go on for a while about our business.

Appearence on the Steve & Johnnie Show

Wgn150x75 Last night I went to bed around 10pm, but set my alarm for 11:15.  I jumped in the car and went down for a scheduled late night interview with Steve & Johnnie the husband and wife duo that host the late night talk show on WGN Radio - AM 720.    They had read the Sun Time article and were interested to talk about both Viewpoints.com and my dad, Robert Moog.

I have to say, I really enjoyed meeting them and talking for the better part of an hour about the idea and how it might grow and evolve.   It was fun and I hope to go back after we launch and talk to them about it some more.

Fortune Small Business Cover Story

Fsb_20070201We got a nice mention in this month's Fortune Small Business

We are flattered to not only be mentioned but also included on the cover. 

A few small corrections.  We raised $4.8mllion from about 10 investors, not the $700,000 the article mentions.  Also, as you know because you are here, our web address is www.viewpoints.com. 

In any case, for a company that has not launched its first products, we are honored.
