I first heard of Rob when, as a "consultant from away," he spoke to a group of Prince Edward Island deputy ministers and managers and said good things about the Government of PEI website, a project I worked on for eight years.
Later -- and the exact details are lost to history -- Rob and I ended up working on several projects together mostly involving agriculture and technology. We've become good friends (although we had a temporary public falling out and rapprochement, which only made us better friends, I think).(Rob) Definitely!
Rob is one of the few people who will put up with my style of participating in meetings by passively listening for an hour or two at which point I then chime in and suggest a completely difference course of action from what has been discussed to that point.
Rob lives in Stratford, PEI with his wife Robin. He has a blog and a corporate website.
Peter (Rob here) introduced me to blogging and hence has made a major change in my life. He also has had a largely unknown but significant effect on life in Charlotttetown. He helped get the Buzz started, City Cinema and ISN. By agreeing to move in with silverorange - he has helped the downtown revival begun at 84 Fitroy that now includes the Queen Street Commons. No small achievement!
