IT Professional Career involves learning, and a major part is delivered on Video.

I found that using iTunes Podcasts is a very convenient way to learn.

You get tons of video lessons, news, how to stuff and more, brought Automatically

to your destop as well as to your iTouch/iPhone.

Here is a list of recent Computing Magazines based channels I picked.

This should save you some time as you listen or watch instead of read

Each one of those will launch your iTunes app.

In some countries (outside USA) the iTunes store will not allow you to

sign up to the podcasts.

However I was told there are solutions in case you do not sign up to a pay for podcast

(and all those podcasts are free):

• itpc://macworldheadlines.libsyn.com/rss – Mac World Headlines
• itpc://rss.macworld.com/macworld/weblogs/mwpodcast – Mac World Podcast
• itpc://www.mevio.com/feeds/pcmagreviews.xml – PC Magazine Reviews
• itpc://feeds.feedburner.com/pcpropodcast PC Pro Magazine Podcast
• itpc://feeds.pcworld.com/pcworld/itunes/audio – PC World Magazine Audio Podcast
• itpc://feeds.pcworld.com/pcworld/itunes PC World Magazine Video Podcast
• itpc://podcasts.scmagazine.com/rss2 – SC Magazine (Security) Podcast
• itpc://leoville.tv/podcasts/ww.xml – Paul Thurrott Windows Weekly Podcast
• Our Podcast (IT MasterMind Podcast with Audio of all our blog posts)

I’d be glad to get your recommendations regarding additional channels for our group.

P.S.

Talking about video, I have been playing with a nice tool that practically removes

the annoying “Buffering” pauses you get, while watching stuff on the major Video

sites, including Youtube of course. It can also speed up the iTunes videos you watch.

Remember “DAP” – Download Acceelerator?

Well the same guys now deliver a Video Accelarator program.

I enjoy it a lot – here is a link to their info

and download page: http://budurl.com/VideoAccelerator

Yours,

Jack.

IT Professional is always on the look for solutions of new challenges.

You probably recall many brain storm sessions, where only few people

would dominate, and after a while you got used to a “fact” that some

people are better at brining ideas to the table.

Let me tell you that I found out you could get much more of those sessions.

Here is a system I have learned about which could quadruple the amount

of ideas and participation in your meetings:

1. Start the meeting by explaining the issue at hand and the desired results.

2. Ask everyone to take a piece of paper and write down their ideas.

3. Put some quiet instrumental music in the background so that no one has

to deal with the silence. Researches consistently show that people are much

more creative, when there instrumental music is being played in the background.

There are also reports showing much better results while writing ideas on paper,

rather than writing them on the computer keyboard.

See more info about it in the Audio Book I mention here.

4. Give it at least 10 minutes.

5. Collect all the papers.

6. Start reading the papers one by one and write the ideas on a writing board, so that

any one can see it.

7. Have every one select their pick for the best 3 top solutions out of the whole list and

review the top ideas, to go in details as possible solutions.

This system will get the less dominant people in your team contributing a ton,

before the group hears from the more dominant members and get influenced by them.

Get this Audio Book for about $7 (if you haven’t used this service yet)    

Brain Rules: 12 Principles for Surviving and Thriving at Work, Home, and School

and use a ton of additional advises on how to make the most

of your team’s brain power.

I read it and it has amazing ideas for any IT Professional career

IT Professional career Career Time Sensative Announcement

(Your Year 2009 Goals and the 100 days challenge)

Hey there!

Sorry for the short notice.

But since this starts on 23 Sep (2 days from now),
and I don’t want you to miss this,

I decided to send this now anyway.

It is about your 2009 goals and finishing the year in away
you cannot even imagine right now.

It is about creating the same level of breakthrough Jeff Bezos
from Amazon,or Google’s creators had gone through.

It is true you may not get to create a new “Amazon” soon, but
you certainly can get your career and workplace leap frog.

But first let me tell you a story…from my high school days

There was one computers teacher, Mr. Angel whom I admired.
He knew a lot, always had answers. He was very demanding
on one side and yet he would sit with students who had difficulties
and help them until they got the point.
He had bright blue eyes which could look at you with either
pride or disappointment if you did not do your best.

Did you have such a teacher?

Anyway, after teaching us all the sequential methods
to sort a group of numbers using a computer program,
he challenged us.

He asked us to try and find a way to sort the numbers in a new way
that would slash the sort time to say 10% of the best one we had.

All of us were stunned…make it 10 times faster…and then we
had it brewing in our minds for the whole week.
And then myself and few others found a solution. It was not perfect,
but it worked. It required a shift in perception. It was not suited
to solve any situation, but it did refer to what we were asked.

And it did work in 1/10 of the time and even less than the best
method we learned.

But we could not have reached it, if Mr. Angel did not challenge us.

Here is one of the basic success tips in the 100 day challenge:

We are accustomed to believe that results are possible due to
incremental growth. It is even more prominent within people
like you and me – IT professionals, accustomed to
step-by-step procedures.

Thing is major breakthroughs require a massive shift in perception
and then in action. It is about setting a much higher goals
and yet aligning them with a noble cause.

And there are more new perceptions as well.
You can learn more about it in the special free
report and additional videos here: IT Professional career
