As you can see I’ve got Several people here who you don’t think would reply or even think about doing this. I have a plan. I want these people to tell their story about this memo. I challenge them to actually post their responses on their blog or Podcast. I want to hear your story about the old days. I want to find out all about what people think or did to get into the IT profession!! I have this grand Idea to hear from the people and find out their story. That is why if you do talk about the memo link back to me so I’ll know.
If you think you’re not a computer geek or a Sysadmin, I know better. I am sure you have family or friends that you’ve had to work on their computer for some reason or other. You have the skills even if you didn’t know it. I want to know how you got into the IT Field. I want to compile all this information to help people to get into the field and all this information is valuable to people.
I dare you Scoble, Mark, and the Co-founders to be the first to do it. You know you want to!!!
