Pan-Mass Challenge Heroes #13: Larry Lawfer
This is an ongoing series profiling some of the people I believe to be the real heroes of the Pan-Mass Challenge: the sponsors who donate their money to fund cancer research.

Pan-Mass Challenge Fundraising and Training Update
I have been keeping up (mostly) with my Pan-Mass Challenge training, but have been a bit slow in editing videos (you’re welcome). The reason? I got a new Flip Ultra HD, which will result in much clearer photos, but also necessitated new editing software. This short bit from an early morning ride shows my fascination [...]

So a recent Harvard Business School study said 10% of Twitter users produce 90% of Tweets (http://bit.ly/hbstwit). Does that make Twitter a "Broadcast" medium? I don’t think so.
