Survey Reminder: Our Intentions Are Good, We Swear

integrity.jpgRegardless of how you feel about a certain editor’s grammar or questionable mental state you’ll be doing us a huge solid by taking our reader survey.
This isn’t like those big firm surveys where we’ll shamelessly exploit the good feedback and present the bad feedback as a terrible joke at the end of the presentation.
No, we’ll only use your personal information for the forces of good. Your ideas will help GC reach new heights of useful and occasionally funny information.
Plus, since you have a chance to win a $100 AMEX gift certificate, it’s totally worth a fraction of just one your chargeable hours today. We don’t know what the return is on that but it beats the hell out of an ice cream scoop.
Besides, it’s not like we have diabolical plans to brainwash you all to form some sort of bean counter army. What would be the point of that? Start our own firm?
Thanks for your participation.

Some Holiday Housekeeping

It’s the Holiday Season and that means two things: 1) Big Surprises; 2) Big Disappointments. With that in mind, I’m here to share with you, first, a surprise.


Tomorrow, barring any unforeseen sabotage by internal detractors, we’ll be launching a redesigned look and feel for Going Concern. We’ve been sporting our current layout for quite awhile and the feeling amongst us (and many of you that participated in our fall survey) was that we need to update things a bit. After quite a bit of yelling and few instances of people stomping around the room like 3 year-olds, we’ve got something we’re all (more or less) happy with.

Personally, I wanted to spring the revamped website on you like your parents divorce at the Thanksgiving table but I was convinced to share the news with you a day before for the sake of goodwill, transparency and all that crap. Along with the redesign, there will be some upcoming promotions and other new stuff that will undoubtedly change your lives forever.

Now, after an initial freak out, I’m sure you’ll have plenty of questions, which you are invited to share in the comments or by emailing us. But I will save you the trouble of asking the obvious – Yes, we will be maintaing the same commenting format, so you’ll be able to protect your true identities with cleverly devised Internet personas.

Oh right, the disappointments. If you’re devastated by this news and tomorrow your vision is completely shattered by the eyesore in front of you, we invite your feedback and suggestions for what will make your experience less sucky.

You may now shriek with glee.

Reminder: Going Concern Reader Survey (Fall 2010)

Against my will, TPTB have forced me to remind you that it is imperative that you take our Fall 2010 Survey if you haven’t already.

It’s also been impressed upon me to also re-mention that we are offering you the chance to win a $500 gift card and it also makes you a good American.
