How times have changed at IBM !

There was a time when some of us involved in working as Level 2 Product Specialists for the Aptiva PC support desk (Colin, Claude, Ciaran, Ger, Ian, anyone out there, anyone?)got a telling off if we so much as read the Unofficial Aptiva Forum or the pages it spawned at the time. Now IBM is embracing the blog for everything it is and actually actively encouraging employees to blog their merry little hearts out , aint that sweet!

For any ex-employees like myself who may want to catch up, or for the general public looking for some light-hearted expert opinions on everything from architecture to Web 2.0, there's something for all so have a gander! I recommend checking out Andy Piper's excellent page "The Lost Outpost"

Blogged with Flock

Hey Jim, thanks for recommending me :-)

I've no idea how long ago you were here, but yes, things have changed in the past couple of years and we are now encouraged to blog - albeit within some guidelines, which are pretty reasonable.

The list of IBM bloggers that you link to is the "official" list i.e. those of use who have elected to have our personal blogs listed. There are also developerWorks blogs, and there's an unofficial list of IBM bloggers too (it isn't too hard to find).

As an ex-IBMer, you should probably check out the Greater IBM initiative, too
