here’s a link to Ganesh Iyer’s TechKLite site on Facebook, where he posts lighthearted cartoons about technology - today’s is especially cute for those environmentalists out there (like me)… but you may want to review all of ‘em!

I’m here to write about the importance of recharging. Actually I’m not really here - as our office is closed for 2 weeks while we all take vacation (or continue maternity leave). Usually we don’t close entirely, but the vacation plans all require a set week or two off (cruises, free lodging, significant other’s only vacation time, etc.) so closed we are.
When setting up an office closure, do a few things to make it easier:
- notify key clients that you’ll be gone - do this 4-6 weeks in advance, so there’s plenty of time to get last-minute assignments complete for them prior to departure;
- set up your phone and email to notify folks that you are stepping away for a few days and that you’ll respond when you return;
- try to well and truly “step away” - don’t check voice mail, don’t log on to email (unless you’re using it to chat with family, etc.); and even then, don’t give in to the temptation to just ‘peek’ at email.
The blog will be back in two weeks - until then, consider whether you’ve ‘gotten away from it all’ - whether that be in your own back yard or on a life-changing adventure - and if not, schedule it!

If you’re like me, a road warrior, you will appreciate this new traveler site from Chris Brogan entitled Man On The Go. Although not every post resonates with me like his main blog does, I still find it useful to pick up tips (and disagree with enough of the posts to realize that I have my own definite travel preferences, as my blog comments indicate).
Chris provides reviews of places he’s gone (hotels, and the services like limos he’s used to get there); product reviews; and also helpful travel tips (in one post he shows you how he unpacks when he gets there…)
For the occasional traveler, there still may be nuggets that will interest you… but probably not as much.

this time, this short 4 second video might remind you of when you took “typing” in school…
