    Lol. Perhaps "everything" is the answer. Sounds like you're never bored and you certainly can't find things monotonous!

    Take a look in the Virtual computing section here. I think online courses may have been discussed on there some point? (If they weren't it'd be an interesting thread to raise!)
    I attended the course stated on the website and it really was worth it - makes a newbie realize how much there is too it all...personally I think I’d have struggled with online learning for this as, during the course there were a hell of a lot of questions that arose and it was great to have a tutor there to fire answers back at you and also relate things to recent real life activities he'd been involved in / bring up things that may not necessarily be covered by the course material, but really help you to understand things more...but that's not to say that you wouldn't benefit from an online course - everyone copes differently!

    I'm packing
    well actually i'm waiting for the washing to finish so that I can repack

    Just got back from a week in Montana on Sunday night at 11pm MST
    Heading to Sacramento today at 4pm for a training course till Friday
    being I guy, I own about enough casual clothes for a week, so took pretty much everything I owned with me to Montana

    Should be a fun course though, going to learn a bit more detail about the stuff I have been raving about to people for ages
    Datacore

    Take 1 old windows box
    put Datacore software on it
    instant SAN that can scale to rival even the beastiest of EMC Clariions, not a bad deal :)
    Can run 10GbE, 8GbFC out of the box! (coz its a windows box! natch)

    Maybe do a write up when I get back, but i'm busy putting my presentation together for next weeks first Boise Technet event that a colleague and I organized, be nice to get an MS user group going in this neck of the woods!

    At 140 characters per tweet, including spaces, if you can't create a complete thought in one tweet, you multipart it. It's like writing a series, but instead of individual installments coming out daily, weekly, or monthly, in twitter, they come out in moments. :wink:

    If you can't create a complete thought in one tweet, you blog it. ;)

    Nah...I don't have the same audiences on my 2 blogs that I do on twitter. Also, the transactions are a lot faster and writing in "stages" on twitter, is a lot like those old movie serials of the 1930s thru 50s...short, frequent, and (hopefully) at least mildly compelling.

    You'd think, but frankly, tweeting those little bits and pieces doesn't take as long as creating a blog post. Most of the time, my "multi-tweet" tweets are only two tweets long. My blog posts by comparison, can be much longer and are more time consuming because I have to edit that much more text.

    I guess it's just the way I "conceptualize" microblogging. Yeah, it's not typical or traditional, but in a lot of ways, neither am I. :wink:

    EDIT: Oh...and when I want to promote a blog post, I *do* tweet the URL. :)
