I’ve just arrived in Beijing after a day of travelling. I left home before dawn for a 6am flight to San Francisco, then flew to Beijing.
The flight was uneventful; immigration stressfree.
First impressions of Beijing? It’s raining, foggy and construction is everywhere.
Tomorrow I will be in the local Novell office, more updates then.
I need to get some voiceover on this – but this is a live screen cam of the installation of ZENworks Pulsar. It takes about 5 minutes on a fast server.
Tomorrow morning I’m heading off early for a week in Beijing, China. It’s the first time for me; and to be honest the first time I’ve travelled anywhere where I really don’t have any ability to speak some basic local language and read my way around.
I downloaded a Rapid Mandarin course by Earworms from Audible – and I at least know some phrases. (Well – it’s another language I can order beer and coffee in ..)
Hopefully internet won’t be too shoddy during the week – I’ll be there with Laurence so I’ll make sure we post some pics.

This site gets a mix of visitors; but most are technical people.
Right now IE7/XP and Firefox2/XP are neck and neck.
What is interesting is that IE7/Vista is just over 3% of traffic already.

I’ve blogged about LinkedIn many times in the past couple of years.
One thing that never fails is using LinkedIn to track the internal barometer of an organisation. It can even be used to track an individuals thoughts about a place.
A simple example.
Let’s say that you see a connection who has been somewhat dormant in the past few months suddenly start adding connections like crazy and writing and getting recommendations.
Maybe they got organised and started working on their LinkedIn profile; just as likely is they are fishing around for a new role and want to polish up the profile.
I’ve noticed about a 70-80% correlation on this in the last year; profile gets refreshed and updated; a few months later people move on.
Let me know your views.
