Totally, it gets really old after the second one. The problem is the next person that contacts you, automatically you start thinking "I really need to give him a detailed answer? what if he just doesn't come back? what if I just never heard of him anymore? I really do want to invest this amount of time in an answer? maybe nothing happens...?"
And it's ok, we all have been there before. It all comes down to having a motto, like McDonald's or Burger King. No matter how the previous guy treated the clerk, he will always have a smile for the next one.
It's not all about being nice. But I have no doubt is a big part of it.
Worst case scenario: the person you are talking with, don't want to be honest and say something like "I'm going off for a trip" or something like that, to never speak to you again.
It's like when you are a kid and your dog dies, your parents tell you they sent it to a farm. Later you find out the farm was actually the backyard and his spot is six feet under the grass.
I will just be more comfortable with the truth.
Again, even with the lie, is not big deal. I just keep going and try to solve the next email inquiry, or at least point to the right direction.
Thanks for writing Mo!

Hi Pepe!
That's how I post, never wanted to sound like Tom Peters or throw catchy titles; that's how I always blog. I guess I have learned a lot from Tom Peters and every time I remember what I have learned, I get too over exited. But that's about it.
And I don't think our only merit has been capturing attention; we do web design.
I was just explaining what happened during the whole situation and what I learned from it. I wasn't trying to write a book or something.
Yes, you could learn to use a little of that.

Too many catchy titles and cool phrases don’t make up for lack of substance.

Hi Paul!
Actually, I use wordpress. It's my new wordpress theme; still on the works (the footer needs some work). I usually like CMS that do just one thing and do it right! I will try EE to see how it works!

Josh! I think that's a good way of saying "hey, you are right, you can't even read that blog now!"! I know Mr.Kawasaki is a loving man and a good person: I trust he won't send me ninjas or web 2.0 nerds to chop my head while I'm sleeping (I'm watching you Yahoo).
