        <Summary>How to Understand Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) in Your Business Management Software and the Value of Integration and Software as a Service</Summary>
        <Description>

		&lt;p&gt;Growing companies often find that IT Costs grow nearly as
		fast as revenue. We approach IT Costs as the Total Cost of
		Ownership of a system and discuss enterprise integration and
		software services as means of breaking the IT cost cycle.&lt;/p&gt;

         <Name>We are merging</Name>
         <Summary>Two of our weblogs, and the new RSS Feed is below</Summary>
         <Description>
&lt;P&gt;We noticed that there were a number of posts from our Total Cost of Ownership 
and our CRM blog that were overlapping and when we had a moment to discuss it, 
it just made sense to merge the two. The new RSS Feed is &lt;A 
href="http://sightlog.sightlinesconsulting.com/public/rss/102302"&gt;http://sightlog.sightlinesconsulting.com/public/rss/102302&lt;/A&gt;.&amp;nbsp; 
Sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused. We will continue to post what 
we hope our thoughtful analysis about what's happening in the world of on-demand 
business software from a hundred different angles.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Thanks for reading and commenting.&lt;/P&gt;</Description>
