I’m Jay Baer. I’m a social media strategy consultant and speaker. I write the Convince & Convert blog. I travel a lot, and it strikes me that for some reason the hotel industry (or at least hotel designers) are unnecessarily complicated the seemingly straightforward task of showering. The variety of shower controls is endless, confusing, and annoying. This blog documents them.Why So Complicated?Tumblr (3.0; @whysocomplicated)http://whysocomplicated.tumblr.com/Hilton Wine Country (Santa Rosa, CA) - County of Sonoma social...<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_ld6ys9tgqn1qbsh5lo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Hilton Wine Country (Santa Rosa, CA) -
