WorldatWork Conference Update and Photo Friday

I received an e-mail from WorldatWork today with the following sentence...

"There are just 114 days, 14 hours and 10 minutes until the WorldatWork Total Rewards conference and exhibition 2008."

They do a great job of keeping the exhibitors informed. I find the countdown gives me a bit of a jolt each time I see it. A little bit of adrenaline kicks in as I'm reminded that the show is coming up, even though it's still months away.

With that in mind, we are working on several updates to NextComp. I'll be posting on weekly basis for the next few months to keep you up-to-date on our plans.


And of course I'll be continuing with the "photo Friday" theme.



This is a beautiful time of year near my house, although the local mountain pass has been closed for days due to six feet of new snow in six days and continued avalanche danger.

Have a great weekend!

Seattle Area Subscriber Group Meeting & Photo Friday

Mark your calendars for Monday, September 24th!

We have a room reserved at the Hilton Garden Inn in Issaquah, Wa. for our Subscriber Group meeting. The meeting is scheduled to start at 9:30 AM and run no later than 3:30 PM. A continental breakfast will be provided along with a very nice lunch. We'll be covering a lot of ground related to NextComp, CompModel, our salary planning application and other areas of interest to you. Elliott Miller and Kelly Christison will be in attendance as well, so you can meet some of the other faces behind the scenes at NextComp.

I still have a glow from my visit to Boston so here are a couple more pictures from that trip.

Back in my neck of the woods, I know it's late summer when the fruit trees are heavy with fruit. These were taken at a park not more than 200 yards from my office.
