A Challenge!
Or several!
When I was a student in the Center, I made a challenge to myself to be the best blogger in the Center. Dr. Gillette and I would constantly try to top the blog roll. I'm not quite as active on the blogs these days, so I will make no claims about my ability to top you "geeks" (although, for one short moment, I'm on top again!!!! HA HA HA).
So, will you challenge yourself... not just to be the best blogger... but, to be the best ____ of the Center. Answer the challenge... fill in your own blank. Being the best at something, anything, will go a long way... so make yourself stand out in your own way! You can do it!
Here's another challenge... one that I personally would appreciate :-)
Cyril, from last year's "mafia" was greatly helpful, but we still never quite got there... by "there", I mean the ability to Cross-blog... see, I post here and on my personal site... Did you click the link? Sure you did... did you notice that the layout is the same? Yep... that's intentional... see, I'm going for some transparency here, but it's a little difficult... I haven't quite gotten the art of the cross-blog down yet, so I'm forced to replicate my postings between the two sites... a bit tedious, wouldn't you say? Is anyone up to the challenge to help me figure out how we can do the cross-blog tango? If so, contact me and let's dance!
At last, once final challenge... the CICSworld RSS feed... can someone take a look at it? I don't think it's refreshed itself in months, and that's frustrating! I had gotten to the point where I was using RSS feeds to read blog postings that interested me, so I didn't have to troll the site so much, but now, I can't do that! Surely there's a "geek" up to a technical challenge here! Again, let me know if you are so inclined.
Cheers!

Tom Peters podcast on innovation
