Hi there. It is Rich here. I have some good news and some not so good. The bad news first. I will be writing less than usual today in this blog. The good news is (or did you think that was the good news ) that I have been writing a great deal today and yesterday but with no time for much editing.

Although I am born in the US you may wonder about my ability to write if I were to post any of this stuff online.

Thankfully I have a great editorial team that will be cranking through the content and making it presentable. I am certainly taxing them today. Feel free to check TMCnet or my columnist page for the details.

In theory I will link to these articles at some point soon.

Until then, make sure to stay on TMCnet. We are really making an effort to have the most and best communications news available anywhere.

Please send me feedback on how we can improve to meet your needs more effectively.

PS: the crack TMCnet editorial team has posted the first article I sent. Here it is:
