Between the Lines
It was old home week here at U.S. 1 when we received
the latest edition of the Inc 500, Inc Magazine’s listing of the
country’s
fastest growing private companies. Of the 500, five are from the U.S.
1 circulation area. All five have been featured in U.S. 1 at one time
or another — three of them on the cover:
the provider of in-store (often literally underfoot) advertising and
promotion services (U.S. 1, April 28, 1999).
the credit card and payroll processor (U.S. 1, November 19, 1997).
provider of web-based services to the pharmaceutical industry (U.S.
1, May 23, 2001).
developer that just added another site in Russia (U.S. 1, August
7).
provider
of web-based IT services (U.S. 1, January 23).
Hall, also participated in a lively dialogue on the subject of
"where
did you learn to grow a company?"
And Robert Carr, CEO of Heartland Payment Systems, was one of three
CEOs who answered the question "are you rich yet?" Noting
that he bought out a group of investors in 2000 for $15 million and
then sold that same interest a year later for $40 million, Carr
nevertheless
insisted that money has not changed his life. "I still walk to
work and still wear the same old khaki pants, much to the chagrin
of my family." He was photographed in those khaki pants, in front
of his office with the Annex restaurant awning prominent in the
background.

Kudos for Google
The October 9 Survival Guide item on the DataBytes program at the
Princeton Public Library described how information services librarian
Janie Hermann explores the hidden Internet not accessed by Internet
search engines that do not index PDF files or pages within databases.
Our story lumped Google into that basket of search engines. Hermann
wrote to inform us that Google is the exception and in fact "is
leading the way with the development of PDF search technology."
Hermann also noted that she graduated from Queen’s University (not
College — that is a different school in Canada) and the University
of Western Ontario (not West Ontario).

From Midori & Friends
IT WAS SUCH A PLEASURE to read the article about Midori and Midori
& Friends (September 25). I was particularly excited to see the
wonderful
way in which you captured the essence of Midori’s views on music
education
as well as the work that our organization does. Midori & Friends
always
appreciates new interest in our programs.
Judi Linden
Executive director, Midori & Friends, New York
