Documentation

Have gotten a few emails and comments about the need to document what I do. Seems like I’m not the only one out there being charged with this particular challenge this year. It’ll be interesting to follow along with others as we all do this, so please, if you have ideas, stories, ongoing projects of your own, basically anything to add, drop me a line from time to time and I’ll try and keep some sort of running commentary of my own discoveries along side every one else’s.

My favorite bit of feedback, though, came from Mark, who referenced his company requiring all of staff to make “Mack Truck Notes”. The notes they’ll refer to if you got hit by a Mack truck crossing the street. I might have to steal that… 🙂

  • One less laptop

    There’s one less laptop in our pool this week, at least for now. It seems this particular laptop was a victim of a miracle. It was in a padded laptop case, just stuck in a car, and somehow the front of it (all the way across the base) got cracked and the touchpad doesn’t work. It’s truly…
