What You See and What You Get When You Follow Me

May 28, 2019 By Stephen Leave a Comment

Social media ought to be social, not just a broadcast platform. That's my feeling at least. It's been a while since I've ranted about "write-only" social media accounts, so I thought I might as well do it again. And at the same time, I thought I would update you on my promise to the people who read, follow, and interact with me online.

February 25, 2014 By Stephen 2 Comments

July 2, 2010 By Stephen 8 Comments

Google Spreadsheet sure isn't as responsive for a power user like me, but I love the ability to share information with others and cooperatively edit a workbook. It's become our main tool for planning the Gestalt IT Tech Field Day events. I was thrilled to discover that Google's spreadsheet supports the importXML tag, which allows it to automatically gather information from … [Read more...] about Cool Google Spreadsheet XML/XPath Mojo

Vendor Non-Blogs

January 20, 2010 By Stephen Leave a Comment

As previously-independent bloggers are being hired in droves by the major IT infrastructure hardware and software vendors, attention is turning to their independence and credibility. But this extends far beyond blogs: Today's social media influencers are everywhere! Discussions Are On The Move The new Internet isn't just about blogs. In fact, the majority of social media … [Read more...] about Vendor Non-Blogs
