KSmith commented on the post, Weekly Question #8: Complete by November 2, 2017, on the site 9 years, 7 months ago
1. Get into the mind of the hacker. What are our weak points? What is the knowledge we value most, and how are we organizing it and protecting it. 2. IT is not a area that should be completely outsourced, or under funded. This can create huge unforeseen problems.
3. I will probably never look at “free” services the same way again. I will ask…[Read more] -

Knowledge Management is just like your brain, but for a company. You learn new things every day, and you store them in your brain so you can remember them later. Companies need to remember stuff too, they just call it a fancy name but its just like your brain.

I have used my husbands card for payments in the past, and it has never been questioned. I have never met a woman named Charles, but maybe the folks taking your payment may have.…[Read more]

Its funny you said this, I too got a Surface last Christmas, and I use the AllRecipes.com app at least once a week! I love that you can find recipes that use specific ingredients you have on hand. I usually check out 3-4 recipes and then combine them to come up with something on my own! Great app!

I have never used Pinboard Victoria, I am going to have to check it out.
I am addicted to Pinterest. I use it to get inspiration for home décor, and most recently for my basement renovation and backyard usage. I have found a lot of creative ways to use the dead space under the basement stairs for additional storage. I also have a very steep…[Read more]
