Planning and Execution

In the past I had put together a few resources and use-case experiences that I had faced in my day to day.  As time progressed I lost interest and eventually removed it all together.

At this point though I think there is more I can bring to the table as well as offer up some personal insight into the industry as I see it.  I can’t speak to all vendors but I’ve noticed for instance, the quality of Cisco TAC engineers dropping considerably in the last few years (with the current climate and layoffs at major tech companies I only expect them to get worse.)  I think particularly on the customer facing side of the industry there is going to be a lot more need for self reliance.  

All and all, hopefully as we put some things together here someone can get a benefit out of it.
