Andrew Kantor used to work for me at Mecklermedia. We hired him to cover the Internet way back in 1995. Andrew was one of the few writers at that time that understood the Net. In fact he was so good the CBS News Show 60 Minutes featured Andrew and Leslie Stahl on a lengthy segment about the Internet.

I had lost track of Andrew but was pleased to see him in service with USA Today on Friday. His column is good reading. It was nice too to be mentioned by Andrew.

One day I hope to host a gathering of all the folks who worked at Mecklermedia in the early to mid-90s who early on believed in our Internet dreams when many thought we were crazy.
