Getting Things Done with Mobile Devices

November 11, 2009 at 12:00 pm PST

Mike describes the Mobile Possiblities to Tina

Welcome to the Show Notes for Episode 55!

The ability to be productive anytime, anywhere on any device has never felt more real than right now. The explosion of capabilities with video collaboration and consumer devices that are pushing expectations faster than ever before.  This  creates both wonderful opportunity and significant challenge. How can IT work to preserve the in-office experience with users going mobile and still serve the critical needs of the business?   Our latest (and dare I say best!) episode will show you the latest ways to make a mobile phone mimic what you love about your desk phone, solve the challenge of ‘my cell does not work in the office’, preserve your meeting visuals while away from your computer and do all of this in a consistently secure manner. I guarantee it!

Confessions of a Productivity Geek

November 10, 2009 at 12:00 pm PST

Vintage JoystickCollaboration -- is it something you ‘do’ or something we want you to ‘buy?’  Yes! Kinda. 

This ‘catch-all’ term for a never-ending set of tools, technologies and processes continues to evolve.  As a self-professed productivity geek I just love this stuff.  In my highly valued opinion, Cisco is ‘the most advanced’ provider of tools that embrace and work to solve the real challenges inherent in ‘getting things done’ with today’s business needs firmly in place.

Jimmy Ray in TWTV52 - Name that Reference

Questions about Jimmy Ray’s wardrobe continue to filter in each time we air a show.  Our Catalyst Switching show that aired yesterday was no exception. The good folks at Jinx as well as ThinkGeek have provided him with numerous options that you will continue to see if you follow along. The fun part for me, and now apparently for many others, is the game we get to play each time in figuring out the reference.  Some are deeply technical, some are simply obscure cultural references. 

 

This is a good shot of what he wore for yesterday’s show.  This one’s a two-fer.  Two references being made here (the undershirt…and the one I am not sure he can button).  What do you think they are?   The answers are below…so if you want to challenge yourself…wait to push that ‘more’ button.

Fun on the Set of TechWiseTV 50The first new TechWiseTV show of our fourth season is a Data Center show and it happens to be episode 50.  What is the proper gift for hitting 50? I don’t know…surprise me.  Welcome to the Show Notes!  If you have not seen the show yet, please check it out -- it aired live on September 24 and should be available for immediate replay within 24 hours of said date…

Before I get to the actual ‘notes’ you may be looking for…what did you think of this show?  We have a new production team that we are actually doing in-house and we have changed up the style quite a bit as we are also now shooting in San Jose’s building 13 -- the Industry Briefing Center…big shout out to Rob Sprenger and his team for letting us bunk down with him there as this is an OUTSTANDING place to see real Cisco technology solutions in these cool fake settings…like a doctors office, a hotel, a bank, a retail store, on and on….great place to hang out. Please add this to your Cisco ‘Bucket List’ in the San Jose area and come say hi.
