Sonoma State CRM MA - Episode 45

We start the show with an interview with Dr. Adrian Praetzellis, author of several popular theory books and a professor at Sonoma State in California. This program is fantastic and would be great for anyone wanting a career in CRM.

FACEBOOK and FACEBOOK GROUPS

Our final segment is a discussion about how Facebook groups and pages work. For the record, Doug and Stephen are wrong! But, take a listen and tell me I'm for of it in the comments.

We've got a bonus show for you outside of our regular schedule. For this episode, Doug Rocks-MacQueen plays the host and Chris is a panelist!

iPhones, Emails, and HCI - Episode 44

On Episode 44 we pack in several conversations. First, Chris talks about the iPhone 6+ and it's use as a field device. We also talk about larger smartphones in general for fieldwork. Then we read three listener emails which include a discussion of prevailing wages and what kind of math is required in graduate school. Finally, we talk about our new education program that Doug, Bill, and I are setting up, Heritage Conservation, Inc. (the name is in flux).
