Abstract
One of the Faces of the Smarter Planet campaign
Body
To make true advances in any industry or field requires forward thinking—as well as industry insight and experience. It can't be done just by packaging a bag of piece parts and putting a new label on it. But forward thinkers are putting smarter, more powerful technology to uses that were once unimaginable -- either in scale or in progress.
I am pleased that IBM has honored me with recognition as a "forward thinker" on the corporate-wide [IBM Smarter Planet for Smarter IT systems and Infrastructure]. This is quite an honor, being one of the "faces" of IBM's Smarter Planet campaign. I am joined by my esteemed colleagues: [Brian Sanders], [Steve Will], [Willie Favero], and [Kathleen Holm].
Ironically, I didn't even know I made the final cut until I got three, yes three, separate requests for interviews about it. I already reached the "million hits" milestone. Other people track these things for me, so it will be interesting how much additional traffic my latest [15 minutes of fame] will generate.
