For CTI practitioners - share your insights
December 15, 2009
Sorry friends, This is not a discussion on "new technology for CI"- this is a discussion about improving gathering capabilities which in my mind is most of the time "basic CI". The real challenge and this is where new technology can give an added va…

What is RSS and Why Should I Care?

For me, RSS is second only to search on my list of the most useful web applications.

I am enjoying the book, still working through it with all my other reading, but I like the practicality of it. Practitioners of the art need more than academic treaties on the subject. And thanks for making it a Kindle selection--when you travel aro…
