5:50 PM -- This morning we were fortunate enough to receive a stone tablet -- I mean, a press release -- telling us about an intriguing piece of hardware called The Original GoBible.
No, GoBible isn't the rallying cry of some Midwestern high school football team. It's a handheld audio device containing the Old and New Testaments in electronic form.
GoBible has all the earmarks of a groovy Enterprise 2.0 device. It comes with a special "Bible-in-a-Year" program that organizes passages into 12- to 15-minute daily segments and navigates the user through the entire Bible in 365 days.
It's also interactive. As a fan of any search technology, my heart leapt when I heard about GoBible's "Topic Index," which lists roughly 30 circumstances and emotions, including sadness, joy, fear, and repentance, for which users can select from a list of pertinent verses.
The GoBible makers are clear about appropriate use of their wares. Being plugged into the Word doesnt mean you can turn into one of the iPod-toting zombies I have to fight my way past on the subway every day. No, GoBible's creators are at pains to emphasize that their device is a supplement to regular Bible reading (as opposed to taking its place!).
With the move to the cloud, CISOs must shift priorities from operating security programs to overseeing (monitoring and auditing) outsourced cybersecurity programs.
2022 was a boon year for IT salaries. 2023 came in like a beast with layoffs, raise freezes, and ChatGPT, but that beast has few teeth.
Age is only a number. Don't let a high number cancel your career.
