- Quote: "They'll just "see how it goes." " I think no matter how much testing you do, at some point you do have to release it (be it software, a website, branding campaign, etc) and 'see how it goes'. But I agree you need a deployment plan and part of that plan is a back-up. Agree, depending on the specific application one of these examples might work better than others. |

On the one hand this could mean the indroduction of an administrator with an engineering background (O'Keefe is an MPA), on the other hand can we really expect NASA to effect serious changes and find a focused direction with leadership changes every 4 years?" An anonymous reader adds a link to this Florida Today article (also carried by Space.com) which says that "the retired director of the Pentagon's Missile Defense Agency tops a list of five men that President Bush is considering to take over the space agency."... |

- An Anonymous Patron sends "this story from the Sun-Sentinel about how locating small collections in classrooms can help motivate students.

- Claire and I were quite disappointed last night, because we put up the Christmas tree in the living room bay window and then realised we only had a single string of twenty white fairy lights.

So we headed out early this afternoon, picked up a few Christmas presents for the hamsters, and spent a fair bit of time at Dunelm Mill.

- A new tool from Google came out in the last week or so, and it has been making the rounds in the blogosphere. I haven't posted about the new Google Suggest, mainly because I think it's a rather dumb idea.

Mainly I think it's a dumb idea because it does what a directory does, but in a much less intuitive way. If I want to browse web pages, I'll use a directory thank you. |
