Here’s the link to the CBS This Morning story on Sherpaa for all of those who couldn’t wake up early enough this morning.  I can’t thank David and the folks at tumblr enough. We owe so much to them in helping us get off the ground. We’re fortunate to have such great partners and it just shows how much David is thinking about designing not … Continue reading
