- After reading this InfoWorld article last night I've decided IBM's iSeries (aka AS/400) just may be a powerful platform. We use it at my work only for OS400 stuff so I never realized you could use it to run Linux, Windows and (soon) AIX partitions. It sounds like some companies are consolidating servers and running the various OSes on a single iSeries box. I'm curious why IBM doesn't make this a bigger deal when they promote the iSeries. It got my interest! |

- Mark Sakalosky at ClickZ: How much would you pay to send 100,000 e-mails to an audience of males between the ages of 18-24, living within 30 miles of a top-five media market? How much more would you be willing to pay if each of the males in the target audience agreed to receive the e-mail advertisement? Hw much more would you be willing to pay if their ISP or e-mail provider ensured your e-mail would be the only e-mail advertisement delivered to each of the males in your target audience on the day of delivery? Mark presents an idea that's been tossed around before but I think it needs to be considered seriously this time around. |

- I started my morning out shoveling a 55' long by 25' wide driveway this morning. No it wasn't snow. It was gravel. The driveway at our new house wasn't paved and we didn't have the cash to get it done this fall so we opted for putting some gravel down. My wife called the place and they said they'd spread the gravel for us for $100. |
