Ron and I worked together when he was at KnowNow (not KnowHow as indicated in this post) and it was an enjoyable and memorable experience.
Congratulations to Ron on his new position, and to Lithium for recruiting a great VP of Engineering.

Thanks for the kind words! I am very excited to be at the confluence of web 2.0+, consumers and the enterprise. We are building great new capabilities on top of the Lithium platform like our recently released ideation product, Lithium Ideas. We're growing, hiring, and extending our industry leadership position. All proof points that we have the right formula for our customers and soon to be customers.
