Today I am going to step back and look at something relatively simple but very powerful. One thing that my company provides for employees is a subscription to technology books online. I tend to reference these books in my blog entries mainly because I find them to be good reference material. When I write a blog entry I try to first address the topic from the mindset of a sales rep. I address the simple questions around what is the technology, why is it relevant, and how much...

Ok, yesterday's exercise got me to thinking about how to minimize the number of machines/computers that I use. My first corrective action was to redefine a machine or computer and reduce the number. Today I won't count light switches or toilet flushes, just machines that have batteries or electricity other than things like lights, heater, air conditioner, and door bell (yes that would have counted yesterday but it wasn't used). Today the count is substantially less1) clock2)...

I have been a firm believer that you should do one thing very good and do it better than anyone else. Doing this makes you valuable and your talents and resources are needed by many people. The biggest problem is what to focus on? This is the key question that makes or breaks a career. I have talked with many corporate executives and managers and they all agree that their success is part hard work, part picking the right technology, and part getting lucky by being in the...

Technorati Profile I have been working with my wife in building a school library for my kids new school. When the school opened this fall they did not plan on creating a library for the kids due to expenses. My wife thought that this was wrong and began a grass roots movement to gets books, bookshelves, and a library computer donated. This movement was very popular among the parents and over 7000 books were donated as well as money for bookshelves, time to build and install...
