What’s Your Favorite “Buzzword d’Jour”?

“What’s Your Favorite “Buzzword d’Jour”? “The Fast and the Furious” comes to mind when thinking about the terminology of our industry, everything moving at breakneck speed!  Over the past decade the buzzwords and acronyms have been changing at a mind-boggling rate.  I also realize this is happening all around us every day, all I have to do is listen to my kids with all the terms they throw around about communications and social media to realize how lost I am.  However it seems that in…See More

Besides university students we also had several busloads of eager local high school students in attendance. These kids were smart, enthusiastic, and anxious to know how to create a career in our industry. During these workshops and presentations we had the chance to coach the group not only about technology but…
