  • Windows 7 and the Vista Marketing Fiasco
    • Cool little things about Microsoft Products
  • SharePoint and Office and why these are great together and what does this whole social networking thing offer to business anyway
    • Scripting
    • SharePoint implementation and the unexpected acceleration of adoption
    • Governance why is something so important so difficult?
  • Google
    • Some of their recent announcements (OS and wave) What’s hype and what’s not
    • Should anyone be concerned about privacy with Google
    • Dependence on Google as  a single source provider?
  • Apple Zealots and the iPhone
    • Why does everyone think that there wasn’t a mobile platform before Apple
    • Security and Viruses
    • Why Apple is great for the industry
  • Cloud Distributed Computing – Why the word cloud is so appealing is beyond me and why I avoid it.
  • Just cool stuff

I’m planning on writing some longer articles over the next few weeks and a few short blurbs as well.   I want to seriously start writing again and rebuild some communication skills that I haven’t exercised as much as I should recently and see what happens.

I think I’m also going to make an investment is some video equipment to do video blogging like Mike Gannotti.  With more than an hour a day in the car, there’s no reason to waste that time.

I’ll probably highlight some of the blogs I read on a regular basis as well.

This is a a tall order and I hope I’m up for it.   Let’s see what happens
