Hasta LaVista Baby..

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

This should be about the last blog entry before we take off for Boston. Our flight’s at some ungodly hour (6AM), which with airport security being what it is, means us at Port Columbus around 4AM. Needless to say, there will be no time for an online presence this evening. But here’s a short list of what you can look forward to when I get back next week:

Pictures from the trip!

A return of the THC topic in the forums -Unless something changes drastically over the weekend, I’d have to say they haven’t lived up to their end of the bargain. (psst…I’ve already put my article back up.)

Some new links and changes on the static pages of the site. -The extent of which will depend on time available and what sort of suggestions folks send me while I’m gone.

Possibly some information on software to create HTML newsletters as I research that functionality for our Communications Dept. next week.

A report from the MS Volume Licensing event on the 26th. -that should be interesting! *yawn*

Various other assorted madness, as usual!

Have a great weekend folks!

    Yes it’s true, I really do hate trial subscriptions that tech magazines seem to give away to everyone. In my former work life, there was something that I had signed up for using my home address rather than my work address. I don’t even remember what it was but whoever I gave that address to,…

  • Governance Can’t Keep Up With AI

    ByMike McBride Reading Time: 4 minutes

    So I ask again: why are we listening to the people who have the most to gain by getting everyone to buy AI tools, instead of making our own decisions about how quickly we should move forward with AI? Governance exists to slow things down – forcing people to think before they run off and do something disastrous. 

    Should we design better governance to address rapidly changing technology? Absolutely. Should we let Big Tech determine how we redesign it? I don’t think so.

    Yeah that title does seem like a contradiction, doesn’t it? Seriously though, I got an email over the weekend from Steve, who wants to start up a Google group called “One-person IT Department” Seems like that might be an interesting idea. If it interests you, drop by, join up and start a conversation! Follow these…

    I downloaded Mozilla 1.2 Beta last night and there are two new features that are rocking my world right now. First the pop-up manager actually solves the problem I was having with surfing blogs and opening comment windows by letting me specify which sites are not allowed to do pop-ups, and leaving the pop-up comment…
