Hello,
I created ProxThink, although I hope many others will eventually add to it. I wanted a set of ideas to help me relate to as wide a range of situations as I could imagine.

Thank you,
David Loughry

In a networked and copied world, we often overlap.

In a networked world, we often overlap. It can be hard to tell where you begin and I end. Where one business begins and another ends. Add to that how easy it is to copy things, whether information or products and services. In this kind of world, paying attention to the proximity makes more […]

This may sound like a paradox. But it may be the result of paying more attention to the proximity, and less attention to elements.
In the process, it may also result […]
