Please be patient with me
This is my personal initiative - so at the moment there is just me, and me alone, resourcing it as a labour of love.
However, as important as it is to me, my family is even more important. And for family reasons I will not be able to do anything more on it for the next couple of weeks. (Bad timing I know, but there is nothing I can do about it I am afraid)
So if you are interested, and do either register on the site or send me a message via it, please be a little patient since, apart from an automated welcome message that contains much of what you need to make a start, it will take me a little while to get back to you in person with the final bits and pieces.
I hope you understand.
STEVE
Agreed - but not this way
The ideas presented by Steve Pipe are indeed thought provoking. However they are purely marketing ideas, plain and simple.
Resources would be better utilized codifying best practice in these challenging times. We do not want to be bombarded and brainwashed with thought provoking headlines and articles which serve only to promote self interests.
Accountants cannot change world but we can improve how it operates. We need to look carefully at what we do and how we deliver it so it meets the demands of the business world. We need to set aside our personal greed and change with the times before we become redundant.
The emphasis needs to be on embracing and partnering with on-line accounting technology and information technology before it consumes us and renders us redundant.
Let us not lose ourselves in marketing and lets get back to basics and adapt.
Why
@Paul - perhaps you don't share Steve's vision but the "why" you do something is worth thinking about along with how and what.

Although I like
the idea, it is up to everyone to change the world.
I think, Steve, (and fair play to you) you have jumped on the bandwagon. The world is changing and gathering momentum. Who would have thought that a few years ago UKIP would be a credible alternative to the major 3. Who would have thought the Middle Eastern people would turn against the dictators. etc. etc.
DC is actually (albeit on a uturn path) thinking "there must be a better way". Have a nice hols Steve.
