Pogoplug – Easy File Sharing

I first read about this in the current (12/7) issue of Networkworld.com

Pogoplug: A wolf in sheep’s clothing

It is a very interesting idea for a home User, but as the article points out, one would NOT want to have something like this in a Corporate environment!

Need to do some more reading, and budget some money…

Let me know what you think.

Update –

Since my original post to Facebook, some folks have reported some issues…

The biggest issue that I see is that Facebook has by default, made “your” information (Wall Posts, Links, etc.) visible to the Whole World!

And there is a reason for this… Facebook wants to and needs to make money, but the question is how.

There had been talk about making FB a Paid services, but that seems to have been shoot down…

SAY NO TO FACEBOOK BECOMING A PAYSITE

But apparently, 2.6 million FB Fans said no…

Basically, it is about the data… What you post… Who you “talk” to… Where you go… etc.

Google does it and so do most Search Engines… as the blog also points out, it keeps Twitter at bay…
Anyhow…

There is one note of caution, the Screen shoot of the FB settings is INVENTED and is posted as a suggestion to management at Facebook. (I too did NOT read carefully… D’oh!)

Switch from Blogger to WordPress

Well after making the connection from Blogger to FaceBook, I started to look at the Core of the platform, and decided to switch to WordPress as my blogging platform. If you want to hear more details, please let me know.

Another thing that just came across is the ability to use MS Word 2007 to blog to WordPress!

Really easy!
