Right now there is no advertisement at all. I am purely allowing them to use the community to get their testing done. Let's just say I have a vested personal interest in them getting off the ground.

They are not tied to ML in any tangible way other than posting on the community.

Are they tied to Grove Social though?

Nope not at this point. I hope they will hire GS to help them with Marketing stuff when ready though

Well I already knew that @scottalanmiller was/is an investor in Sodium, sounds like Danielle just admitted she is as well.

And these things are fine.

The alpha nature of this product definitely make it have a lot of chatter as bugs and feature requests are made.

As for revenue generation - what I've been told is the Sodium website will have ads on it, and perhaps generalized data about the machines that data is being collected from will be sold, but the second part is a current unknown.

Frankly, this sounds like the next generation of that other company where most of us found each other.

Nope I have nothing to do with it at all just letting them post.

Happy Thursday. Tomorrow I travel all day so today is sorta my Fridayish type day.

Where are you headed tomorrow?

NYC to work on a client site for NTG and meet with a few clients for TMQ, the meet with a GS client for drinks and hopefully get to see my brother and Nephew as well.

HAPPY FRIDAY!!!!! Off to NYC now ...

Art calls me on my way home from NYC, tire on the van is flat, ripped a hole in the side of it. So i made a detour to Canisteo on my way home (had to back track of course). Now in Dansville getting a tire put on the rim. Then back to Canisteo then I finally get to go home. Ugh I'm tired but grateful for nice guys willing to help.

Coffee... and explaining how local users work on a desktop for the 10th time...

@chrisl said in What does your desk look like?:

@scottalanmiller True. I was able to write an article for our blog entirely on the iPad yesterday, containing multiple links, etc. Wasn't too bad to deal with.

Spreadsheets are a different story, however.

Mileage may vary based on type of work, obviously, but it's been a smooth transition for me so far.

I do it all the time. From the Marketing side it's where I spend most of my time anyway.

At our Colo, they keep having power issues, so make sure systems are on the good leg before they cut it off for maint this morning.
Which bugs the crap out of me, its a colo, this kinda work needs to be done on a sunday. They seem cheap to not pay for OT on the electricians.
It is on our books to look for a new colo.
Did I mention its the second problem with the same PDU source as 2 months ago?

Colocation America is AWESOME!! @ChrisL can help you out!

Happy Birthday @Dominica!!

Jut sorted the dead XP machine and got it working on another machine until the software people come in and set-up a new PC with it on.

Why are you still running XP? He asked sarcastically. . .

Try having a client still running Server 2000 and Server 2003.........

With an Access database

@wirestyle22 said in Witnessing Sexual Harassment:

@minion-queen I sent her an e-mail and told her that I did not think what happened was okay and if she wanted me to report it I would or if she wanted to report it I would absolutely back her up as a witness. I really felt bad for her. I don't want to make a choice for her though either.

Makes sense. People like that piss me off.

@scottalanmiller said in What Are You Doing Right Now:

I travel with so little, it's hard to remember what is needed. Chromebook, cable, iphone charger.... um... ticket...

That's like it.

CPAP, clean underwear, matching socks...

downloading IOS updates for all the istuff. Leaving one phone out of the mix just in case it breaks all the istuffs

@coliver
LOL yea,.. Just one more... this is new. while typing the screen goes black. I have to press the power button twice to come back and it's at the lock screen. Attached or USB keyboard... doesn't matter.

May have to do with recent updates.. IDK.. I really had thought I could find a solution to the lag issue and keep it. but thus far,.. not happened. drivers, updates, research.. nothing has resolved it. Maybe a burn and eBay time.

why do you think I got rid of it ?

I have started taking B12 mid day and then some green tea. That has done the trick for me.

Here at SW met @Texkonc and @NetworkNerd

Say hi for me! I would ask you to give them each a hug but... I won't be that mean

Music, going to see it, have a gig, listen to it. Music is always my go to.
