Outlook has GOT to get better!
It seems that in the last month we have been experiencing a plethora of issues mainly through Outlook 2003 standalone or tied to Exchange Server. Now why these issues have become so present are caused by multiple factors. Clients not accustomed to archiving overload their .pst file. Clients maintain multiple services (Exchange internal/external, POP3, Gmail through IMAP pushed to PDAs, etc.) When trying to hone down the load on an Exchange Server, the first issue that becomes apparent is the imposed 2GB limit for .pst files within Outlook 2003. This can sometimes be managed by changing the original .pst to Unicode which is native for Outlook 2007 and either expanding or eliminating quotas on Exchange. All that being small potatoes to the overall performance of Exchange/Outlook, it is a constant that requires too much administrative overhead and is not cost effective. Convincing clients that their best line of attack to eradicate the persistent anomalies in 03 software is to upgrade to 07/08 is a chore. Where do we go from here? Suggestions and comments are requisite from you, the readers, to help both Admins and Clients understand the path to harmonious email…

Another Blog – does it help?
Does it actually help to inundate the web with all these cross-linked Social Networking sites? Since the advent of Facebook, Twitter, Blogspot, WordPress and a slew of others, interlocking and interchangeable websites now mesh into a cohesive whole, where each web API can either push or pull from another or vice versa.
Immediately it becomes obvious that all these sites hashing data and back and forth can only bolster your web presence, ultimately culminating in a more ubiquitous ranking and visibility on sites like Google.
It also quickly comes to bear that there is an awful lot of redundancy in this practice. Is this good or bad? Some say it is negative because there is only a small percentage of original material being posted into the new Internet environments. A lot of activity is simply automated to pull from already existing RSS feeds and duplicate recent activity across the board.. Thus, updates posted to other sites simply mimic once original content and do not present anything fresh and new.
But the upside to these avenues I’d the fact that now people have a choice of what software application and/or API they prefer to use to get their word out and to subscribe to others. Because these apps all seam and mesh it makes it more likely that a person trying to make contact with the outside world is able to do so with a vast array of separate apps, or simply choose a favorite site and still get what they are looking for.
Case in point – IA Blogs are somewhat standardized in content and do indeed echo each other. But this allows presence to be much more vast and far-reaching if not for the merit of programming all the sites to integrate, instead more possible outlets are given for the ultimate goal… To be seen and draw the right audience one wishes to communicate and interact with.
The future of the Internet present person or business is looking fully attainable through the always dreamed of ‘free’ apps and OpenSource collaborations that serve all functional purposes and manage to make life easier for the general public to find, meet and interact in ways till now thought impossible and technically too complex.
The Internet is once again evolving due to the nature of human beings constantly wanting bigger and better tools to reach others through technology. The fact that data traffic on the Internet is absolutely exploding with no settling down in site is a good indicator that these apps and ideas are working and will continue to do so.
We are aided in reaching our goals by some of the smartest engineering and application capabilities ever seen. History will show whether all this ‘linked’ hype is worthwhile and beneficial.
Need help integrating apps to talk to each other? We are here to help. Contact us through any of the various avenues we created – we’ll be more than happy to assist.

Welcome to the IA Blog!
Well, here is the first of hopefully many blogs that will serve mainly you, the reader... my goal is to present as much freely available information as possible regarding Microsoft networks, servers and Administration.
This in turn allows open discussion and awareness of often overlooked or simply not so well known solutions to the plethora of issues that arise in any small business network.
Stay tuned!
