Here are some great posts I've been reading lately regarding office news, tips, and info. First off possibly my favorite post of the month: Memo to All PR People & Publicists: Stop Being So Dumb and Do Your Flipping Job - I know this is not totally office relate; however, if your office uses PR folk it's too your benefit to make sure they're acting cool - they're representing your company. And believe me, this post, did not over exaggerate the situation. Office 2007 Trial + Activation = Disaster - the post kicks off with, "Urban myth: PC World staffers never have software hassles. Everything works right the first time, and we have special immunity from Microsoft Office nightmares. Pardon me for a minute while I check Snopes -- and LOL." Ha ha, and really it just gets better. I love honest techies. Internet–Friend or Foe for Productivity?: tips on how to surf when you need to and still stay productive - I need to go back and re-read this one. Building Powerful and Robust Websites With Drupal 6: I HATE Drupal as a blog platform; that said it might be a nice robust website tool in the right hands. Just don't launch a blog network on it (I'm begging you). Tax rebates: A clue to co-workers’ salaries: Figuring out co-workers wages using refund amounts - my question; why would you? How Well Do You Know Your Customers?: Got an office or company blog? Then you need to read this post. MyFax: A greener alternative to traditional faxing -how is this going to not be a good thing to read?
