This is another in my normal humorous Saturday blog post series about a funny aspect of the  Information Technology profession.  In the past, I have featured jokes, comics, cartoons, and  news.

We are back for another round of Information Technology BuzzWord Bingo today! I have taken a real liking to this game and recommend that you give it  a try to keep meetings fun.

For the uninitiated. you start with a group of confidants that have prepared Bingo cards prior to a meeting.  Then as the speaker uses various  Buzzwords, you cross them off on your personal score card.  If you get to five across, with the center square being a free space, you have to tell  the others that you have "Bingo" and you become the winner.  It depends on the corporate culture if you actually get to yell, "BINGO!", or not!

Background links:

If you want to quickly get a card for your next tech meeting, you can get a random one ready made for printing at businessbuzzwordbingo.com.

But, for more fun, here are two great links to online Buzzword Bingo Card generators if you want to customize one for your office:

Above, you can see a sample Buzzworrd Bingo Card that I made for information technology!  If you click on it, the full text is much more visible.  Maybe you can print that one out and try it?  Let me know if you get BINGO!

Enjoy, but don’t get caught by your boss!  Please share if you have played this game at work as well.

That is my Information Technology Thought of the Day (ITTOD) for September 26, 2009.
