Last month Bailey resident Jim Ciccarelli, the co-founder of local community website 285bound.com, was given the honor of being included as a member of the IT Hall of Fame. Details in this week's Flume.
I can't tell you how proud I am of you Darlin'! What an awesome accomplishment! You've been a wonderful friend and mentor to me, even when we've disagreed you've listened, and I deeply appreciate that. Love ya!
"Now, more than ever, the illusions of division threaten our very existence. We all know the truth: more connects us than separates us. But in times of crisis the wise build bridges, while the foolish build barriers. We must find a way to look after one another as if we were one single tribe.” -King T'Challa, Black Panther
The truth is incontrovertible. Malice may attack it. ignorance may deride it, but in the end, there it is. ~Winston Churchill
Congratulations again Jim! I had no idea HOW high you are in the rankings - rubbing shoulders with celebrities such as Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, Michael Dell, William Hewlett and David Packard. Quite an accomplishment :thumbsup:
Of course, I had to comment on Jim making it on this exclusive list of game-changers and IT innovators. He is now immortalized in stone with names like Michael Dell, Bill Gates, Steve Jobs. Why? Because Jim put all his competitors out of business with his creative ideas. He is a maverick in all business and has an innate ability to do the opposite of what people expect. This is what makes great innovators. I kind of liken him to a Henry Ford. He is one of the most creative people I have ever met.
This honor is well deserved. The list is very distinguished and Jim's legacy in the IT world is now set in stone. Communities Bound misses his innovation and creative mind but we are glad he is still there to advise us. Congratulations Jim. This is very big. You deserve it and all those who have worked with you in the past, I expect, are not surprised in the least that you were inducted into the IT Hall of Fame.
Thanks for the kind words. It was a major surprise Just wish I made the money some others on the list made. Special thanks to my friend nymysis that posted his congrats on pinecam, I hope he, paca and msmam don't get banned
