Something to think about..

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

Kevin is working on a year-end podcast. He has an assignment:

Since this will be my last podcast before Christmas, I’m giving you all an assignment for a End of Year Podcast. Either send in audio feedback, ..OR.. call the listener line (206-888-4488), ..OR.. call the Skype line (callto://inthetrenches), and leave your input regarding 1) What made 2004 significant to you within the IT World, and 2) What are you looking forward to in 2005? I’ll patch together all of the feedback items and make a podcast out of it for the end of the year.

I’m planning on maybe thinking about this a little bit, but my initial thoughts for 2004 definitely include podcasting, especially what Kevin does with the Tech Chats, as an opportunity to network and exchange ideas with peers on a whole new level, regardless of location. That has been quite exciting, at least for me… 🙂

Other significant things, in terms of having been a big event and requiring my attention as an IT guy this year, have been the release of Windows XP SP2, the growth of spyware, complying with the CAN-Spam Act, the official release of FireFox, and probably a few others I’m forgetting right now.

Anyway, it’s Christmas Eve, hope all of you who celebrate the day have a wonderful and safe one, and hope you all get good geeky gifts to tell us all about after the holidays are over. 🙂

    Looks like Kunal has come up with a solution for Robert’s aggregator blog that should keep everyone happy: “His new version will post titles, and some text from the body, and post that. Only a small portion, though, not the entire text.” That’s excellent, I was really worried that he would switch over to a…

    Thanks to a pointer fro the Office Weblog, I found this interesting OS News article about using just freeware to get things done on a Windows PC. Most of that stuff is familiar to me, but some isn’t. That’ll give me some new things to think about. 🙂 Speaking of which, I need to update…

    While I don’t have the time to do every page, because the navigation bar will probably be slightly different when you’re on different pages, I did manage to put together a little test of what the static pages are going to look like here. The blog will probably end up with something like that at…
