Save the planet: Turn off the lights, automate your data centers!

I was sitting and watching the TV and saw this ad from "Act on CO2". This thing moved me off my feet, it always does actually (that also show how soon we all can forget and how badly we need these reminders). Just think about it, forget about Virtualization (for a while), with me:

  • Who are we?
  • Why are we here on this planet?
  • What are we giving back to our "Mother Earth"?
  • What can we do to help us stay on this rock a bit longer?
  • Why don't we all shutdown our PCs when we go home?
  • Why don't we shut down our lights we we go out?
  • Do we turn our heating on full blast or keep in on "eco-drive"?
  • Who are we?
  • Why are we here on this planet?
  • DO WE DESERVE TO BE HERE???
The way we have been acting the last 200 years..umm, I'd fire the whole staff if I was the "Earth CEO"! While these questions will raise a lot of questions in your heads, I just want to take this opportunity to display how badly we have have altered our biosphere.

Nuff said. Watch these movies and also go to GreenerLiving. In fact these videos have been borrowed from them:

With this post, I am shutting my computer down, turning off the plug and I am off for a good long walk. Do also watch my "Green Grid Template" if you are a CEO in need to help the earth become a better place to live and work in.

Redhot Future Of IT Part I :Marketing yourself as IT professional

I had promised about the "RedHot IT Future Series" and so we discuss here how you should market yourself EFFECTIVELY as an IT professional in this new (and dangerous) web age! Web is the place where you're a hero today and villain tomorrow. While there are lots of professionals who are active on the web, not all are enjoying a good reputation as they got "personal" with others and got into a cockfight. The passive IT professional has nothing to lose but nothing to gain at all!

I know "marketing" might seem as a greasy term but the idea is to have the truth about you out there. You know you're a good person and your family knows that you're really smart person but the rest of the world doesn't!
