Office 2007

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

Awhile back, I linked to the Power of Together thing that Microsoft was doing, where you could get a free copy of Office 2007 and/or Vista in exchange for watching some videos and web demo’s. I got my Product Key for Office 2007 in the mail today, so naturally I was off to download it. There was one odd thing I ran into, the release version will not install if any of the beta products are still installed, including OneNote. So even though the Pro version of Office doesn’t include Onenote, it won’t install until you uninstall the beta of OneNote 2007, which I did. But the release of Onenote isn’t available yet, so I had to download a 60-day trial and install that after I got done with the Office Pro install.

Anyway, after all of that, I do believe everything is running properly on my laptop again, and I’m looking forward to buying OneNote when it’s available, and then continuing to use the 2007 products going forward.

    Linked: The shortage of tech workers is about to become an even bigger problem for everyone

    ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

    The shift in tech skills is one of the contributing factors, but it’s not that technology has been changing, because that ALWAYS happens. It’s the insistence that employers can find people with a skill that didn’t even exist 2-3 years ago instead of actually developing the people they already have, or hiring people who can continue to adjust and learn these skills.

    How many jobs are going unfilled because you’re looking for someone with expertise in a technology that has only been around for the last 1-2 years? How do you expect there to be a bunch of experts on this technology? How do you expect recent graduates to be familiar with the technology that their college curriculum hasn’t even caught up to yet?

    It’s not possible. So you might want to start adjusting your hiring, recruitment, and staff development processes, because that’s how you shrink the talent gap, by creating the talent yourself.
