I'd like to dive into the technology stock sector for '08 this week, but let's first tee things up with the outlook from the folks who do most of the IT spending -- small business owners.
According to the numbers from the Discover Small Business Watch, released this morning, small business owners...

I know, I know.

From what I'm seeing out here in the trenches, economists just can't seem to agree on the health of the U.S. economy, in general, and the technology economy, in particular in 2008.

You've heard of Wi-Fi . . . but how about Wi-Fly?
