Yes, there are plenty.

No, really, even though IT is a male-dominated industry, there are still plenty of powerful women in high-ranking position. Here's a link to the top ten, according to eWeek.com. I just thought it was worth mentioning for any geeks who might be reading my blog that happen to be female. I'm sure it gets frustrating sometimes, being a woman in our industry, so I thought it was worth reminding you that there are women who've "made it to the top", as it were.

Sooner or later, we pay for everything.

No, not the kind you're thinking of...

Yea, robot killerz in the house, yo!

Soaking up the rays!

Hey, two great tastes that taste great together!
My regular readers will know that I love WiFi, even if security can be an issue, but they may not know how much I love solar power.

Be kind to your IT staff.

Don't do this to them. Do not walk into their office and ask questions like "Are we having a problem with the server?" or "Is the Internet down?" Asking us questions like that result in responses like "No, the server is fine. But why don't you tell me about your problem now?" and "No, I'm on the web right now and it's fine. Do you have an error message?" or even "Why don't you tell me if you're having a problem?"

As I mentioned the other day, my doctor wants to do one more biopsy.
