Have you ever noticed that that first week back to the office after a break is a bit different? This one certainly was for me - while work itself stuck pretty much to the script, the world around work was transformed by a blizzard of technology.
I don't much enjoy making gadgets work any more, but I'll step into the breach if there's noone else who's enthusiastic around. I like that smug glow that follows on from solving a curly one.
We have a VOIP setup that hasn't worked for a year.
We've acquired a new wireless print server that should make it easier for our wired household to put stuff onto paper.
We've acquired a pair of smart phones - a Samsung Omnia and a Nokia E71, just to keep all the axes of choice open.
Just to start to get to grips with the E71 is more than a little effort. Working through the script to setup the print server a few times without success is worse.
Still, steady patient effort has never failed me in the past. I can practice the new skills of bringing other people into the conversation as I work through it.
