I began to pay a lot more attention to my home office backup regimen after a particularly nasty hard drive crash right before an article deadline and a Thanksgiving holiday two years ago. The debacle ruined the day off I scheduled, my holiday, and was just a plain old stressful event.

There is a whole lot of proposal writing going on in today’s bad economy in both the commercial and Federal government sectors.

As Microsoft works to prepare Microsoft Exchange 2010, the venerable Microsoft Exchange is seeing new fronts open in its competition with Google.
Many skeptics see Google’s entry into Office productivity and the enterprise in general as a feint towards Microsoft to keep them distracted away from the lucrative online search and advertising markets.
