More SMS work

Microsoft With the Daylight Savings Time 2007 updates and a number of other projects, I’ve got a lot of SMS (that’s Systems Management Server) work to get through this week.  There is some file permissions on our image, the monthly security patches, the DST updates, and a few others like Adobe 8 that need to go through testing.

While I like the aspect of having a management tool to do all the work, sometimes, SMS is a beast that needs to be beaten into submission.

Push Email with Windows Live Hotmail and Windows Mobile 6.0

Ah, now this’ll be a great feature for all WM6 based devices.  The ability of a free Hotmail account to push mail directly to your device is a great feature.  Now if they can retro-fit that back into WM5, I think everyone would be happy.  After all, WM5 has had the ability to perform this service with Exchange email systems since it shipped.

At least your next WM phone will have the capability!

Back in the office…

So I’m back in the office after being out with the flu for several days.  It’s business as usual, getting back to the tasks of enterprise projects and the associated mindsets.

This week is mainly to be getting caught up and surging ahead – at least that is my perspective this Monday morning.  I’ve got a lot of items to do, most being documentation, training and hand-off to additional staff.  Other items are to get some testing done, a project charter written, project scope put together and a few other incidentals that always arise.

Back in the saddle again…

Welcome to RickMahn.com – One year later!

Yep, it’s been a full year since I launched this blog, finding WordPress, getting my domain set up and diving headlong into the blogosphere.  I’ve not been blogging just for a year – this effort was a culmination of three previous blogs.  I had previously used MSN Spaces, Blogger, and WordPress.com – all are still online.

When I found I could host my own WordPress software on a hosting service and customize my own site – that was the shit.  So here I am a year later, still working on finding the “line” if you will.  Sometimes I’m not sure if people want to hear what I have to say, but at the same time, I’m glad to have the platform available to vent on.  I had been planning on some kind of post about my first anniversary here, but I’ll just leave it as something simple.

Just glad to have peaked today to make sure it was the actual date!
