In the everyday grind of work sometimes a funny video can help get you out of your funk.  I was introduced to the Very First IT Technician and found it pretty humorous.  The video looks at how the transition was made from the scroll to the book.

The Very First IT Technician

 

Randy Paush passed away on July 25, 2008 after a long battle with cancer.  He has helped inspire millions of of people including myself.  He has become famous for his Last Lecture which was recorded shortly after he was diagnosed with cancer.  If you have not watched it I highly recommend it.  I guarantee that you will find at least one thing that will help you in everyday life.  I also highly recommend watching his video on time management.  We all need help with on that subject.

The best administrator tool I have run across is Ultimate Boot CD For Windows.  The tool is a bootable recovery CD that contains software that letst you do just about anything.  The majority of the software is freeware utilities that get you out of tight places when administrating machines.  I have mainly used the CD to help me reset the local administrator’s account when a client can’t remember it.  I have also used for several other tasks like remving trojans and cleanning ad-ware off of the server.

Benjamin Burrors is the creater of the project which started back in April 2004.  There have been several other people that have helped with the project that are recognized on the projects web site.  If you are interested in finding out more about the tool I wouls encourage you to visit the site.  You will be able to find out everything about it along with some other interesting information.
