I love the way that links can lead you to so much interesting information – and people.

Yesterday I was checking out some Conservative leads and came across Richard Bailey who, like me, cares passionately about environmental issues. He is also a former Conservative Press Officer, who is currently standing in his local elections and lives nearby.

I then came another Richard Bailey who is a PR consultant and somehow, in my excitement, I thought they were the same person. I was interested in his Silicon Valley link from Morgan McLinctic on the ROI issue, which was discussed at length at the blogging conference last week.

Turns out I thought I had met one really interesting Richard Bailey, but have now met two. Has that happened to anyone else?
