I jumped to this site with interest.

I chuckles at some of the results, esp. Number 5.

I find the initial opinion of The Laredo Group interesting. Using ad reps
to gauge the future of the(ir) industry is like talking to print reps
about the future of newspapers or FSI (Free standing inserts).

Frankly, I dont talk to reps about their wealth of Internet knowledge.
About the only thing I talk to reps for is the actual cost of the buy and
not a 'state of the nation' address.

Also, find it funny that some/most would accept equity when they don't
believe in the industry...
