Here we go once again I believe with an uncompleted understanding of IT technology and a sample of illiteracy at the lawmaking level and why I keep talking about this issue as those folks living in the 70s scare me as they don’t get it. I’ll go back to my words of choice here and once again use...

This was a study based on Microsoft products but you can read at the end they felt it would be applicable with products outside of theirs as well. Well heck we know that already as we have read how back at Harvard Medical how much they are saving on utility bills, so this is not the one and only...

We already had Cloud services shot down by the Senate which is an up front indication of the lack of literacy in how IT supports Healthcare. That was done earlier this year and the fact that it took both houses so long to even think about regulating peer to peer rules for government employees with...

The point of the personal health records is to benefit the patient and the prime example he points to here are those with cancer or chronic diseases. Dr. David Brailer also talks about the slow process of getting their records together without a PHR. As a reminder I have a full section...

This is probably a very good strategic location and being not too far from Washington, perhaps those in government leadership positions may get a better picture of the importance of the cloud which the Senate chose not to budget. Microsoft Government Cloud Application Center Created To Assist State and...

This is pretty nice as all the Microsoft Partners who sell and support Government Cloud services from Microsoft are all listed in one convenient area. Additional information on cloud computing can also be found here. The feds though have to wait as they are out of luck for funding here as...

Just today I posted this video with Bill Gates who made the comment about how depressing all of this is and it depresses me too. Economics is not good at measuring and finding value with innovation as those biased make a real mess of everything. Bill Gates on Reinventing Capitalism–Building...

These folks continue to scare me with the limited knowledge of what is needed with IT for the government and it seems this lack of comprehension stands to just about strangle all the resources the government needs.

Hearing reports like this bothers me as I am sure it bugs others too. In April we had all the folks at the SEC watching porn too. Are we not adults to where we need baby sitters at government levels? It sure sounds like we have some folks who may not be in the adult category. ...

I say this is breaking news as almost everyone else in business has a policy and has had for quite some time! I did put it on Twitter but felt later it deserved it’s own post. I have gone into physician offices and hospitals and removed the peer to peer software where it was installed when...
