Your call to "press on" reminded me of this quote from the 37signals blog ( http://www.37signals.com/svn/ ) that I read just yesterday ...

"Doing it right is a pie in the sky. It’s a misnomer for second-system syndrome and it’s never going to happen anyway. So stop aiming for perfect, start aiming for good enough."

The SOA analogy is great, and one I hadn't considered before. I'm going to noodle on that for awhile, and expose the results as they develop.

PS: regarding services for expanding the network and making the content rich, I wish we could use mark-up in the comments here. it would be nice to at least allow blockquotes.

    Chuck now works for Oracle, and is now deeply embroiled in IT infrastructure.

    Previously, he was with VMware for 2 years, and EMC for 18 years before that, most of them great.

    He enjoys speaking to customer and industry audiences about a variety of technology topics, and -- of course -- enjoys blogging.

    Chuck lives in Vero Beach, FL with his wife and four dogs when he's not traveling. In his spare time, Chuck is working on his second career as an aging rock musician.

    Warning: do not ever buy him a drink when there is a piano nearby.

  • Frequency of Updates
    I try and write something new 1-2 times per week; less if I'm travelling, more if I'm in the office. Hopefully you'll find the frequency about right!

    All courteous comments welcome. TypePad occasionally puts comments into the spam folder, but I'll fish them out. Thanks!
