Not to beat a subject to death, but this is the start of a new decade. And things have sure changed. Nowhere is this more dramatically evident than data, 2000, versus data, now.
To cite a few examples:

–Percentage of U.S. households with a broadband connection in 2000: 6.3%
–Percentage of U.S. households with a broadband connection in 2008: 63%
–Number of e-mails sent per day in 2000: 12 billion
–Number of e-mails sent per day in 2009: 247 billion

The list goes on.
The moral of the story (all my stories have morals)? If you are still operating the way you did 10 years ago, you are WAY out of date – and probably missing the boat.
