Another Domino Blog?
Okay, so here goes another Blog about Domino
and other things that interest me. You have to be asking - as am
I - does the Internet really need another blogger? Probably not.
So why am I here?
Back in January of this year, at Lotusphere 2005, our illustrious blog
leader,
Ed, asked a group of people
at the blogger's BOF, "How many people here have a blog?" When
practically everybody I knew in the room held up their hands, I felt ashamed.
I didn't have a blog and all of the other kids did.
So why did I even bother? Ed usually scoops everybody else, and Rocky
and all the other guys pretty much cover the programming world. Alan
has the Tips and Tricks covered hands-down, so what can I offer?
Some of the after the BOF discussion produced the question, "Hey,
where are all the wimmin?" And While Kathleen
and Jess
and a few others are certainly out there, I figured I might try to even
things up out here in the 'net. I am a Domino administrator and architect.
When I need programming, I ask someone who actually has those skills
- and its never me. So I'm going to try and provide resources, help
and commentary about Domino administration.
Also, I'm weird. Not that makes me any different than any other blogger.
We all think anybody cares what we have to say...but still we write
- and people read. I'm weird in a female way, and I was raised by
a world class smart alec (my Mom), so I have a really bad case of that
too. So with that, I'm going to start adding content. I'll
figure this thing out with the help of all my other friends.
So who am I? I'm Susan Bulloch and am an IBMer, with the group formerly
known as Lotus, and until recently I worked with Kathleen
McGivney in Lotus Field Support.
I'll be joining the group formerly know as Reliability, Availability
and Serviceability, currently known as the WPLC Quality Team and I have
no idea what I'll be doing, except to make our products even better
and more reliable out of the gate.
I also speak at conferences like Lotusphere and THE
VIEW's Admin 2005.
Also, I like to eat. Sometimes too much. And I LOVE to cook.
I'll write about both.
I usually travel alone, but lately have taken to traveling with a monkey.
More on that later.
So, with the Work topic being Domino
Administration, what do you want to see here? Got specific requests?
