]]> Ok, so we only had time to discuss 50 today.  These aren’t fully fleshed out, nor are they final.  These are basically the condensed minutes from our meeting tonight.  These are the goals that four of us at Collab21 have in our heads as far as getting our business off the ground.  This is an attempt to be transparent, but also in case this information could possibly be helpful to someone else some day.  The list is not prioritized.  However, task #1 is our original intention in forming Collab21, LLC. and thus is our ultimate near term goal.  Other goals are near and/or long term or ongoing goals.
