Care...Connect...And Design!
The secret to the cost-effective spreading of information that gives the desired results is having those you initially contact cleverly and passionately carry your message to others. The best business networking tool ever created is NOT the computer or even The Internet...It's people!
People are both the solution and the problem. In order for this process to work, people have to CARE, CONNECT and have a good DESIGN. Most do not.
The purpose of this lens is to provide the small business community - especially the folks living in Middletown, CA - with the tools which can help create not only a good design for local small business entrepreneurs, but better economic viability for the entire local economy.

The Big Screen Presentation
Thumb Drive + High Definition Media Server + Vizio HDTV
What is the proper equipment? I recommend three specific devices. First, a thumb drive loaded with your slide show. Second, I recommend a 42" or larger Vizio flat-screen LCD HDTV. To that HDTV you need to connect a High Definition Media Server device. The thumb drive connects to the media server. A remote control that comes with the media server runs your slide show on the HDTV.
