My New Year’s message « reDesign My 3-year-old niece Elena with a message to you. If you’d told me at the beginning of 2011 that I’d be returning to my journalism roots and appearing regularly on CNBC and Bloomberg TV, I never would’ve believed it. 2011 was a crazy year. It was full of many highs and lows, sometimes at the same time. The highs were public, the lows have largely been private. I spent a lot of 2011 feeling like I was living someone else’s life. I was supposed to go on CNBC for an interview, but didn’t have a jacket pressed. I re-discovered what makes Silicon Valley a truly magical place: the people. There’s a list just as long of amazing people I couldn’t meet in 2011 because of scheduling issues, but hope to meet in 2012. Silicon Valley isn’t perfect by any means. Here are the trends that I see in the upcoming years: Continued focus on the integration of online and offline commerce. I’ll be writing about these things and more in 2012. Thanks for reading and engaging with me in 2011. Happy New Year!
