May 21st, 2004 |
Do you know someone who is an editor of a paying publication? Please send me her email address. I interview editors on a monthly basis for a writer’s magazine and my first deadline is days away. I have emailed many people and have surprisingly gotten no responses.

Clueless Security Savant
May 20th, 2004 |
We all have days when we want to tell someone, “Get a clue!” Sometimes, we’re guilty of being the ones who need to get a clue. Going blank and doing things we normally wouldn’t do happens to all of us. In this month’s The Remediator Security Digest, learn about the things we could do that [...]

Upcoming Days
May 20th, 2004 |
Expect my blogs to be quieter in the next few days, maybe longer depending how long the union employees at the company I work for go on strike.

Design Eye for the Usability Guy
May 20th, 2004 |
The design world gets its own fab five who tackle the usability guy’s Web site in a design makeover. They go through the whole routine and we don’t have to see anyone half naked in the process (whew!).

May 18th, 2004 |

Excel Hacks
May 14th, 2004 |
I have bent Excel over backwards to do stuff it was not meant to do like track training metrics and use it as process bug-tracker (think programming bug tracking system except it’s for processes). These spreadsheets require many workarounds not found in the help file or on the Internet. It just takes a few keyboard [...]
