Some people may recall that I am in Sales and that I am very chameleonic. I have the ability to change my demeanor and tongue in an instant. So I talk extremely technical in one conversation and then absolutely dumb it down and talk a basic user through the entire end-user experience.
Throughout the conversation, I make sure the person/group is with me and that I am not, as they say, throwing up information on them.
This is one of the reasons that I was so drawn to a post at Lifehack. Chris Brogan does a great job of explaining the usefulness of this skill and how to use it effectively.
His tips include thoughts on defining the Bare Bones, allowing for White Space, and they important "Check-in".
Visit Chris' post at Lifehack.org for the details. You can also track him down at chrisbrogan.com or at Grasshopper New Media, an audio and video podcast media company he's starting.

Boy, you sure make this site beautiful. I like the rework.
Thanks for the very kind words. I'm glad you're along for the ride. Talk to me more about sales at some point. Who do you sell to? What's the product?
