I have been annoying myself because I haven't been able to keep up my Cloud learning and blogging lately - so last night I decided I would share my wealth by sharing what I am able to share - Account management lessons. Since that is how I spend my day, I should be learning something almost every day, right? So, for now, I am committing to at least 2 posts a week (ok, so I may not learn

Intel and MacAfee - a move for the next generation. As IDC said it today, "This deal is a bid for Intel to capture value in the next era of computing - connected devices". This is a pretty bold move with a big price tag so it needs to have big payoff - but I expect they are looking at a (relatively) distant future for that to happen. This definitely puts MacAfee in the drivers seat for

Because there is a business need. I recommend a client never take on a technology unless there is a need for it, and even though there is a lot of promise in Cloud technology, the same rules apply... there has to be a business need or it won't pay.
