I want to add a big thanks to Telerik. Without their support, there wouldn't be a Hanselminutes. I hope they, and you, know that. Someone's gotta pay the bandwidth. Thanks also to Carl Franklin for all his support over these last 4 years!

i would think so, this helps the company build more of a personal connection with they're cliants, this inturn makes them more avalable to sales and more offers that your companys puts out, as i said it builds on the fact that its real people behind theese companies and personilization is how many of the huge companies succeed.
