THIS WEEK IN ENTERPRISE NETWORKING

Notes From the SMB Road

I'm out on the road again, this time with the Network World Technology
Tour on IT Strategies for Small to Mid-Sized Businesses. The shorthand
I use for this topic is Smart, Secure Growth.

Small and medium businesses range from one person in a spare bedroom
to 999 users, at least according to some definitions. We ask each
crowd their company sizes, and a fair number are from companies with
more than 1,000 employees.

Mind may affect machines

Since 1979, researchers at the Princeton Engineering Anomalies Research
program (Pear) have been studying the interaction between mind and
machine. The results, though small, are measurable and "statistically
significant." Still, the researchers are careful not to talk in terms of
cause and effect: "we're not talking about sending signals from the
brain to the machine through a circuit," says Robert Jahn, Princeton
professor emeritus and the lab's leader. "Whatever is going on, is going
by some anomalous route. We don't know the carrier of this information.
We only know something about conditions that favor it."
