Sorry, but I am management. I don't need the certificates. I hire people with the PMP (or CISSP, or whatever) and expect to know how to do the job for which I hired them. I need to know whether they're full of crap and giving me a smoke enema or whether they're doing what I need.
I've never really bought this overly broad comparison. For example, in Israel Arab-Israeli's are allowed to vote but under Apartheid my understanding is blacks, who were South African, weren't. Why only Arab-Israeli's? Because like in the US you need to be a citizen to vote.
Not trolling, but curious which source you would cite. Like every diet-related study that says X is bad for you another comes out praising X's virtues.

It was actually quite popular. The problem was they canceled manufacturing too soon.
I've found that FB is good for staying in touch with family and friends while G+ is much better for staying up-to-date and communicating with hobby-type groups (for example, RPG publishers, Ingress teams, etc.)
The deal, done over the weekend by staff sequestered in two floors of an office building, was seen by those of us at TW as being no different than the Excite@Home merger. TW's Road Runner service would have access to more content than had previously been available via TW's Pathfinder service (when we were even allowed access to that stuff.) Myself and a few others pushed and pushed for Road Runner to make a deal with AOL for their content and were repeatedly told it would never happen. So instead we created our own. Hell, at one point we contemplated creating our own instant-messaging client.
The biggest is that TW was (is? No idea. Haven't been there in more than a decade) so stove-piped we knew the merger was doomed to fail. One example was when RR - the cable modem business - temporarily risked losing the "right" to use the cartoon character's likeness because the other part of TW that controls cartoons (Warner Bros? Don't remember) didn't like that we were doing things like using "Beep! Beep!" in our ads... the official, trademarked term is "Meep! Beep!"

Prepend this with "Imagine a world..." and read it in a James Earl Jones voice and you got one hell of a summer movie trailer.

True. They do it from right next to your ear.
I thought only my grandparents could manage that.

Had said, "evolution" Fox News would have had coverage for the next 12 news cycles.

Make sure to watch them in the correct order, too.
There have been a ton of complaints about blood-libel pages and Facebook says they fall under their free-speech policies.

From the not-likely-to-happen department.

I'm proud to say I have no clue what CSI:Cyber says.
Only criminals will use Facebook Messenger?

Nah. Why wait when you can jump ;)

Excellent point. In fact, I cover it in my presentation. If everyone will turn to slide 63 ...

You do know the mask goes on your other head, right?
