IT Quotes of the Week from Bill Gates
0Bill Gates requires no introduction to readers of this blog. He is the genius, master business man, and visionary who is one of the most responsible for our Information Age. Without him, there would not be today’s Information Technology. Thus, He is a worthy addition to our IT Thought of the Day Quote of the Week Series.
I like Information Age quotations. I find some of them very inspirational and like to carry a new one around about every week. I thought that i could share mine with you from time to time.
Here is my quote of the day:
“Information technology and business are becoming inextricably interwoven. I don’t think anybody can talk meaningfully about one without the talking about the other.”
- Bill Gates

Dilbert Videos! Who Hates MBAs?
0I love Scott Adam’s Dilbert cartoons. I have featured them before on this site. Today, i happened to discover that his animation is also featured on YouTube! I could not resist the urge to highlight this. He even has a Dilbert Channel there. They are even keyword searchable!
I usually feature comedy on Saturdays. In the past, I have featured jokes, comics, cartoons, and news on the weekends. Sometimes I include comics, stories, games, and photos. By far, though, humor and especially videos with Information Technology (IT) themes have been the most popular. So I have gone back to this endless well of laughs! I simply cannot get enough of comedy videos!
For this week, I have picked this video to share with you as follow-up. It is called “Dilbert: Different Situations and MBA”… It is by Scott Adam’s and it just plain funny and frighteningly accurate. If MBAs are too close to home for you, you can just think, “IT Consultant” and it will be just as funny!
I hope that I gave you a chuckle to make your weekend a little brighter. I will be back Monday with more serious topics!
What did you think of the video? Funny? Do you know of any other similar movies or clips? Please share.
