http://www.b-eye-network.com/blogs/dyche/ There you are! What took you so long? This is my blog and it’s about YOU. Yes, you. Or at least it’s about your company. Or people you work with in your company. Or people at other companies that are a lot like you. Or people at other companies that you’d rather not resemble at all. Or it’s about your competitors and what they’re doing, and whether you’re doing it better. You get the idea. There’s a swarm of swamis, shrinks, and gurus out there already, but I’m just a consultant who works with lots of clients, and the dirty little secret – shhh! – is my clients share a lot of the same challenges around data management, data governance, and data integration. Many of their stories are universal, and that’s where you come in. I’m hoping you’ll pour a cup of tea (if this were another Web site, it would be a tumbler of single-malt, but never mind), open the blog, read a little bit and go, “Jeez, that sounds just like me.” Or not. Either way, welcome on in. It really is all about you. en Copyright 2008 Thu, 01 May 2008 09:49:27 -0700 http://www.sixapart.com/movabletype/?v=3.33 http://blogs.law.harvard.edu/tech/rss In which Jill wonders about commitment in relationships, admonishing both sides to use protection.
