Up next in the Roger Black enterprise: Treesaver, a browser-based digital publishing system for multiple screen sizes. A very interesting endeavor considering all the new platforms we need to deliver content to.
So, what about that old iPad? Out promoting this new venture, Roger tells New York Observer blog Beta Beat: that "I got one the first week, but I don't use it much anymore."
He went on to say:
