They like me

October 03, 2005

Optimize magazine surveyed some 1,100 CIOs and other IT professionals for its annual Power Issue. As it happens, they picked me as one of the top 5 "emerging thinkers" on information technology. I kind of feel like Sally Field when she got that Oscar.

Congrats! Thats awesome. Look forward to many more such ones in the future.

As an emerging thinker (congratulations), what do you think of the trusted computing group's work (www.trustedcomputinggroup.org)? Can it make a dent in the whole security boondoggle we seem to be drowning in? Software alone doesn't seem to cut it.
