An
Insider's Look at the Next Economy
Editor's
Note: I hope that everyone had a great 4th of July
with their families. Due to the holiday shortened week, the
RagasReport decided to take a short nap this week and
enjoy some of the beautiful sunshine here in Florida.
Of course,
the report will return next Friday with its regular dose of
insider commentary and analysis of the tech sector. In the
meantime, I thought I'd share with you some of the great endorsements
that my new book - Lessons
From the eFront - has recently received.

also download the Introduction to the book from the site.
The future
is now. The Next Economy is now - read
about it!
