    Alice M. Fisher started the topic Would You Could You Live in a Box? in the forum Miscellaneous 11 years, 9 months ago

    Seems that the i-phone, i-Pod has some competition these days.
    Have you heard of the i-house? Totally stoked to the hilt with energy efficencies.
    So, are they too small? Too square?
    Would you, could you live in a box?
    I personally think they are pretty cool looking inside.
    Very urban chic-sorta
    I would do a little more to jazz up the outside.

    Alice M. Fisher replied to the topic Commentary about President Obama’s NEW IT team in the forum E-government 11 years, 9 months ago

    I have to admit this is a great read.
    I preface, I am not an IT expert by any way shape or means.
    I have some knowledge. And, these are indeed huge tasks, no they go well beyond huge. It’s a major paradigm shift.

    But, something each agency can and should do is a full analysis of their entire IT landscape with an internal data call that looks…[Read more]

    Sure thing. Hit me up off line if you wish.
    What is the objective of each community? Is it purely an organic free flow of what ever flies?
    Think how much server space it could possibly save on decreasing email use with doc attachments?

    Alice M. Fisher replied to the topic How would YOU define a ‘Community of Practice’? in the forum Forum Discussions 11 years, 10 months ago

    Well from my limited perspective…I did build a beta community of practice. It was developed into groups.
    And, I envisioned them to be SME work groups of sorts…. like a technical management review board as one group and internal public affairs group for another. And, it is this one that I got excited about from an internal and external…[Read more]

    Ok this is a real dumb question from a novice.
    When does something go from an incident or few to
    a Pandemic? And, is the word pandemic mean it’s time to panic?

    There are in the U.S. 306,333,851 people and in the world there are
    World 6,777,086,625 people.

    Here is the link to the NY Times Best seller book list
    The Shack which I mentioned is number one on the paperback list.
    And I have read Angles and Demons ….sometime last year. I think there is a movie on it out now.
    Wonder how it compares to the book.

    And this is the top 150 books from USA Today based on Sales. Some I have not even heard of

    This is a great discussion. What is Here Comes Everybody about?
    Once when my kids were very very young, read to Charlotte’s Web to them
    they were ohhh 5, 6, 7/8 or so years old. I have them all sobbing and sobbing.
    Happily they all love to read.

    Thank you everyone. I want to see what’s out there and what others are digesting.
    Which of the that you have listed do you like best?
    I think because we all are online so much….we are beginning to forget
    about how much is available to us in real live books,
    where we can smell the print, the ink and actually touch paper.

    I got a friend ‘s daughter the series as a gift last fall. But, chalked them up to kids/tweener books.
    Are they that good? And what is the Purple Cow about? The Leap?

    I thought I would revisit this.
    I read GovLoop nearly daily.
    Topix.com
    My personal email
    Facebook
    Twitter
    Wikipedia often
    Major job websites
    and the back of my eyelids everynight when I go to bed
    after reading something…usually a book
    I just finished the Shack. What a read. Anyone else read this?
