I was very interested in the latest Amver podcast, dealing with the two topics highlighted by the CMA Conference, namely, piracy and social networking in shipping. Ben might be interested to take a look at our new networking site (http://www.fobnetworking.com)which is designed for shipping, transport, legal and insurance professionals. Membership is free to individuals. Ben can email me at ContactUs@FOBNetworking.com
Kind regards,
