As Tim eluded to in his last post I haven't been writing as much on the blog since I've been out training everyone on all the new data protection things we announced at Vision.  I'll keep this one short.  First off, I still love Twitter.  I've talked about it before but it's especially when I'm not at home or the office (or in front of a computer) that I really like Twitter.  And now NetBackup can tweet at twitter.com/netbackup.  Follow the blue guy!

 

Second is a series of webcasts that will be coming up.  The first is about how to cut the amount of storage used for backup by applying a technique called just-in-time inventory.  It's a 1-hour deal and I'll be doing it myself live next Tuesday the 12th.  Sign up at https://www4.symantec.com/Vrt/offer?a_id=65668

 

That's it for now, I'll be back with a more meaty post soon.
