Random Thoughts to Close Out April 2008
I haven't posted in a few weeks, but not because I don't have anything to write -- it's because I haven't mastered the art of dividing my time across all needs and wants.
Here are a few thoughts that hint of posts to come:
- I need to write about Strategy, Leadership, and Success, particularly in a corporate context. I have a number of frustrations to put to virtual paper, and hope to do so during May.
- I'll be finishing up my Windows 2008 upgrade in a few weeks, even though Hyper-V will not be fully released for several months. The Release Candidate will have to do for now.
- As much as I have tried to stick to one major social networking site -- LinkedIn -- it seems that a great many of my friends, colleagues and associates are very active members of FaceBook, and so I've been essentially forced to make my presence there more active to keep in touch with them. I'd have to say that the big draw is the wealth of 3rd party applications, of which my favorite is "My Heroes Ability".
- Now that the nice weather is upon us, it's time to plan more trips to the park with the kiddies... It's too easy to get caught up in work and other things, and not enjoy those years where they're still interested in speaking to me!
- HelloTxt is incredibly useful. Far more than I had imagined. I've gotten on board with this whole "status" thing on the social networks...
