Watch those typos

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

This morning, after a doctor’s appointment, I was greeted by a frightened employee worried about what might show up in her Internet History. It seems that she wanted to check a prices on something at a sporting soods store and inverted two of the letters in the name, when she typed the URL. That new word was a whole different sort of site from what she was looking for, and what would be considered work appropriate. Needless to say a quick accident like that, while it would grab my attention, wouldn’t result in a problem so long as you immediately left that site. Several hits to that site, on the other hand, I might have to report. 🙂

    An IT director’s lot is not a happy one. No suprise here really, network security and virus threats keep all of us on our toes, and if you’re unlucky enough to be the place where the buck stops when it comes to being responsible for this stuff, it’s a pretty stressful situation. On the other…

    Seems our work ISP is having a power outage at their office, so there may not be much of me on the internet until later. I’m using my laptop and personal dial-up to craft this entry but I can’t use this for much and get work done on my other machines at the same time….

    When I went to the eye doctor on Friday, the fine folks at DOC told me I could use the same frames that I had been using but that because the frames had some small scratches, I’d be better off getting new lenses. No problem, except for the fact that they no longer have an…
