Happy March 368th! We’re coming up on one year (in the US) of when our kids didn’t go back to school after Spring Break and we didn’t go back into the office. One year since we saw IT organizations all over the world rise to the challenge of moving entire companies remote overnight or over a weekend. So, once again, kudos to you, IT Pros. Last month, I let you in on the secret that we got a new Head Geek
: Kevin Kline. If you’re interested, the official announcement has happened as well. A lot is going on in March with the chaos of Head Geeks, so make sure you check out the what’s planned section.
