Paul Thurrott nails my view of the Droid and IPhone, I’ve used both for a couple of weeks now.

Quick Take: Verizon Droid and Google Android 2A few months back, my wife surprised me by announcing her interest in the then as-yet-unreleased Verizon Droid smart phone. She surprised me further a few weeks later by trucking over to the local Verizon Wireless store on the day the device was released and purchasing one. I was on a trip at the time, and while she’s obviously a fully-functioning adult, my wife has little to no interest in technology, so this was unusual. She had been using a sad excuse for a phone that couldn’t even be charitably called a feature phone; in fact, the Verizon salesperson treated my wife like an Amish farmer based almost solely on the age of her previous phone. My wife found this both slightly condescending and wildly funny.

8 ECM Predictions for 2010 – Content Log

by Bruce on January 1, 2010

8 ECM Predictions for 2010At the recent AIIM Board Meeting that I attended this month, AIIM President John Mancini asked us to blog using the number 8. Why 8? Because no one else is using that number and AIIM can brand around it. So what better way to start than with my 8 predictions for ECM and Open Source – emphasis on the former. I found that I had a lot more that I could have written, so I cheated and added two more on section 7+1 and section 8+1 for a total of 10. Still, I didn’t get around to my thoughts on Apple, mobile, Google, Google Wave, New Applications, Mergers and Acquisitions, etc. Since I have to go home and I am the last one in the office, this will have to do! I know it’s a lot, but I have been doing a lot of thinking lately.

10 tech skills you should develop during the next five years

By Debra Littlejohn Shinder, MCSE, MVPIf you want a job where you can train in a particular skill set and then never have to learn anything new, IT isn’t the field for you. But if you like to be constantly learning new things and developing new skills, you’re in the right business. In the late 80s, NetWare and IPX/SPX administration were the skills to have. Today, it’s all about TCP/IP and the Internet.Let’s take a look at some of the skills you should be thinking about developing to keep on top of things in the tech world in the next five years.
