Was the Business Bib Ahead of it’s Time?


I was reading Alan Cohen’s blog on the collaboration stimulus plan recently and couldn’t help chuckling about his reference to the very funny and creative work of Scott Adams, creator of the Dilbert comic strip.  Most of us can relate to more than a few of these artistic depictions of our day jobs, but a recent post really hit home – Dilbert’s using TelePresence to experiment with a new line of green clothing, ‘half-couture’!

In the strip Dilbert sports a new business fashion of the half shirt and tie. This reminds me of the business bib buzz that caught our attention in 2006. This was one of those fast burn, white hot stories that even made it onto Good Morning America and into the New York Times. Not sure if this look is really going to catch on but with the rate Cisco TelePresence has been growing, I wouldn’t be willing to bet against it.

Great video. Yes, Scott Adams is a great artist and his use of TelePresence was genius in my opinion.
