Why is this no surprise…I personally love going into meetings with Microsoft with my MacBook Pro and Blackberry!

Gizmodo – Microsoft Cuts iPhone, BlackBerry and Palm Pre Employee Reimbursement Program – iPhone

Microsoft, on the heels of its big layoffs and other cost-cutting measures enacted earlier this year, has reportedly stopped reimbursing its employees for iPhone, Blackberry and Palm Pre data plans even if theyre being used significantly for work-related purposes.

Only—you guesed it—Windows Mobile device users will have their data plans reimbursed. It may sound fishy at first Bill Gates banning iPods in his house, anyone?, but you have to remember that many companies offer no such perk for their employees to begin with. The economy being what it is, such a cut in employee benefits wouldnt be out of line for any tech company. [Business Insider]

A Technical Presenter’s Journey Part 7: The Four Rs

Posted on 5/27/2009 8:16:06 AM by Justin Etheredge

Today’s post is brought to us by Al Tenhundfeld over at tenhundfeld.org. Thanks Al

Justin Etheredge’s ongoing series of posts on technical presenting has inspired me to finish this post I’ve had in limbo for a while.

Over the last three weeks I’ve given as many presentations at community events. Overall, I feel they went adequately — not great but good enough. At this point in my presentation skill continuum, my goal is merely not to fail. If you’re not a naturally engaging speaker or storyteller, the journey to giving fantastic presentations will probably be long and overcome only through a lot of practice, and it’s not really a state I’m qualified to coach towards. However, I can give advice on not failing miserably. I’m learning there are many subtleties to becoming great, but becoming adequate just takes a little effort and a simple formula.

The Four Rs of Not Failing

1. Research

2. Rehearse

3. Rehearse

4. Relax
