No Really - NO MORE PAPER. Sixth Sense TED/2009

September 2009 -

Speechless.

This is crazy and you have to check it out.

New ways to read toilet paper labels, people and newspapers - which is weird.

8 minutes.

And the last thing she says, "...maybe, in another ten years, we'll be here with the ultimate Six Sense Brain Implant..." - Good Lord.

Selling MPS: This is Why Managed Print Services Providers COULD Have an Edge Over IT.

The title of the post grabbed my attention:

"Why there should be no such thing as an IT project."

"IT is not an island: CIOs reveal the secrets to successful business projects..."

ANALYSIS
How is it that pure IT projects seem destined to fail, and yet technology is clearly key to business?

Mark Samuels canvasses a group CIOs for their views on what barriers there are to IT project success.
"IT projects never really work," says Mike Day, CIO at fashion designer Tommy Hilfiger. That seems like negative talk from a technology chief but there is sound method in the apparent madness..."-----------------------

Madness? Yes.

I can count more EDM and FaxServer projects that ended up on "eternal roll-out" because of the reasons mentioned in this article - so to finally see somebody within the IT world recognize this, I was taken back.

Well, as you know, MPS is simply Business Process Optimization - say it with me, "MPS is BPO...MPS is BPO...MPS is BPO..."

But as long as we can use our laptops out by the pool, I am fine with IT projects, really, I am.

The BBB doesn't Like Office Depot: Takes away Membership and Gives them a "Badge of Shame"

Office Depot is in very hot water, again.

The Better Business Bureau of Southeast Florida has revoked its membership.

Seems you can't be in the BBB with too many government investigations occurring - huh.

An investigation revealed that ODepot allegedly switched local government agencies and nonprof's "from one pricing plan to another without their full understanding or knowledge..."

Let's throw away the key, shall we?

Wow.
