I’ve gotten into the (good) habit of checking LinkedIn a couple of times a day. I do a quick scan of my profile, groups and the headline news. It doesn’t take me but a minute (as my southern friends say), and I generally glean something useful from it. Time well spent. This week, a post ...

“More people choose EMC Backup.” Our Barcelona airport signs may not be as dramatic as Gaudi’s El Drac at the entrance to Park Guell, but world-renowned mosaic artists are so hard to find these days. I’ve never understood marketers’ glee about advertising at the airport during other companies’ conferences (e.g. Symantec Vision Barcelona 2012), but ...
