on my encounter with a Soviet High Party Communist professor during the peak of the Cold War, being whisked away at night by the KGB, and taken to meet a Witch!

Happy Birthday to me, happy birthday to me, happy birthday dear PanAsianBiz. Happy birthday to me. La, la, la….
PanAsianBiz was my first foray into professional blogging. And PAB is still very much alive.
PAB turned 4 years old today.
For those interested, let me tell you what I have done with PAB and where it is today.

In one month in the early goings three of my blogs, PanAsianBiz, 
RisingSunOfNihon and TheBizOfKnowledge, combined for a page viewership of 360,000+ up 55% from the 230,000 the previous month.

In one hour we had more than 10,000 (10,344!) folk show up. Thank goodness I was in bed when it happened. Come to think of it, maybe that’s what woke me up last night. A movement in the Force. Read the rest of this entry »
