Welcome to rIghT field

Well, I'm finally getting the blog started. Upper Management really encourages this sort of activity...and I decided it's better to blog, than to check out the unemployment office. No, I'm exaggerating, I hope, but I've been thinking about this, and wanting to do something like this for a while. Of course, I just learned that the NY Times was at my neighbor's house, last week, to talk to him about his blog. I'm not really sure what he does, thought he worked for the Shedd Aquarium, nor have I ever heard of or read his blog, but, clearly, his blog is better than mine...for now. Obviously, it's just a matter of time until I'm sitting there with Matt, talking about the huge success of "from rIghT field" on "The Today Show".



Why the delay in starting such excitement, then? (And I'm sure all 5 of you have been waiting with baited breath...) Really, I couldn't decide on a specific topic or focus for my blog, but then I decided that was exactly it. This blog is going to be very specifically focused on nothing! I'm going Gump with this blog, "Life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you're going to get." What I think about and what I'll write about will have something to do with IT, or technology in general, since that's what I do for a living (at least until I'm in Cannes talking about the premier of "from rIghT field - the movie"), but it's not going to be the same subject every time. That's what I'm sure of.


Who am I and why are you reading this? Unfortunately, I can't tell you why you're reading this, sorry. However, I can give you a little background on myself. I’ve been working in information technology since my e-commerce startup days in 2000, doing a little bit of everything. For the last 2 years, I have been consulting. Currently, I’m working to define business requirements, analyze vendor offerings, and implementation planning for a Role Based Access Control (RBAC) project driven by the information security team at a large financial institution.


Hopefully, from time to time, you'll find this blog to be helpful, thought provoking, argumentative, or entertaining. If not, you can always go read something else, but thanks for stopping by to see what's going on from rIghT field!
