About Paul Barron
Since founding trend setting websites Fastcasual.com and QSRweb.com in the mid 90's my passion for media and technology and how it intersects with business has been a vision that has finally come to reality.  Business today must address the sweeping changes that are upon us, it's not just about social media but instead about the transformation of how business will do everything from marketing to customer service to research.  I have spent the last 18 years building successful online businesses, building creative content networks, global events and even uncovering emerging trends that have turned into a 20 billion business segment.  My passion is about results and how we can use these new age techniques to move our business into the future.

Online tools growing fast in the restaurant business

Shiftplanning is just another in a host of online services that I think are exploding to help the restaurant industry in a big way. If any of you have had a chance to use this product please shout out to me, I would love to get your input.

Prepare for the likes of even more powerful tools in staffing, marketing, local targeting, menu planning, calorie and health apps and most of all integration to Social Media. Let us not forget geo-location, mobile and apps for Twitter and Facebook that could take on reservations, online order and more.

Point here is "tech is finally low-cost and effective", which is really just another reason I think we are on the verge of Restaurant 2.0.
