   LinkedIn is a steaming pile. No wonder Microsoft was falling all over itself to acquire it: it fits right into their offerings.

     @irix @donkey I was a research scientist at what is now Scion. I was in a small research team in Chch & did all my work on Linux (from '94-'99). No one in Rotorua realised I wasn't on Windows except a few jokers in IT. For fun, I set up a $0 Linux server in the SI office which ran rings around the services their multi-million$ Netware & increasingly MSFT setup in Rotorua. My SI colleagues skited to their NI colleagues about how much better their local IT was. 1/2

     @donkey @lightweight Loves me some Lotus Notes. Domino has some super cool stuff in it that was ahead of its time but sadly the client UX sucked a bit until v6,5/7.

     @lightweight Two things I’m proud of never having used in my tech life: LinkedIn & Lotus Notes. Managed to steer entirely clear of both so far! 😉
