		<description><![CDATA[One of the TVs at the gym this morning had a really good report about employees telecommuting; I wish I could find it online. But here&#8217;s the gist: If your employees work from home, you don&#8217;t need to pay for a big office, and in most cases (surprisingly) productivity actually goes up. So why aren&#8217;t [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I did a post on October 14, 2010 called &#8220;Who owns the file?&#8220;. In that post, I discussed the difference between working with a FileMaker developer who maintains ownership of the file, or a developer like me who allows the client to own the final file. Recently, I picked up a new client who went [...]]]></description>

Almost every time I meet a new prospect these days, I get asked, &#8220;What about some of these cloud services out there?

That can also become the worst thing about it. &#8230; and what&#8217;s so bad about that, Mr. FileMaker Database Superhero? Why would it be bad to empower the end user to create his own processes?
