Technically, Cloud Innovation is one of my company’s clients. My company is a one-man consulting company, so I make little distinction between my company’s clients and “my client’s”. > Yes, you can again blame it on the journalist. That's very easy to do.

Whether or not it’s what I should have done, meh, I’m not convinced. I don’t normally announce all my clients when talking to a journalist (or anyone else for that matter). It’s not like anyone here doesn’t know my affiliation. Those who are determined to fined fault with my actions will do so whether there is fault to be found or not. Owen
