I remember our editors at Prentice Hall/Pearson saying, six months ago, “We hope you don’t get bored after a few months of blogging about OM”. It turned out to be just the opposite. Jay and I have enjoyed the process tremendously! It not only keeps us in touch with instructors teaching from our texts, but has provided us with lots of information we will incorporate into the upcoming edition.
On this, our 6 month anniversary of Jay & Barry’s OM Blog, we just passed our 11,000th visitor. Of the 169 blogs we have posted, I thought I would share with you the ones that have been the most “clicked on”.
