When to Baseline a Project

Note to Facebook

No More On-Premise Servers
I have long been talking to clients (especially small businesses) about the fact that they do not need to keep servers on-premise to do their work. In a press release dated 1/13/10 where Gartner lists its key predictions for IT in 2010 and beyond (read here), the first highlight is a prediction that by 2012,…
iPad thoughts – the first 2 weeks
Very interesting device. For me, it is definitely a consumption device. Netflix, web-surfing, news and blog reader, drawing and playing games with my kids, and some YouTube. The video quality is amazing, the magazine reader is excellent, the battery second to none… Very good for easy blog postings and lite-email writing during my daily…

Random thoughts and ideas
A few days ago, I tweeted that Google bought DocVerse – an office plug-in which allowed for real time sharing, group-editing and versioning of Microsoft PowerPoint, Excel and Word documents within the Google docs platform - I can’t wait to see how they will release within the platform, as it would improve its capabilities…

To iPad or not to iPad: Courier is the question
So much conversation about this topic, one more would not hurt. Like many folks out there, I can’t wait to get an iPad early next month and start playing with it, but I must confess, I am not sure why (other than it is sexy). For several years I have been using a regular HP…
