What is the largest room in the world?

The largest room in the world is the room for improvement.

I read this line in a weekly newsletter from User Interface Engineering, Failure Is Not an Option -- It's a Requirement.

Their articles are usually specific to usability testing, but this one has a broad message that's good for any organization and even for anyone personally.

It says that a company that embraces mistakes or failure is in the best position to learn and grow from them.

The article also has a list of common mistakes and provides you a chance to learn from others mistakes (novel concept).

A couple other good quotes:

"Good judgment comes from experience and experience comes from bad judgments."

"Experience is the name everyone gives their mistakes."

OK, even simpler language, basically unless you're still living in the 70s and have rabbit ears on your TV or an antenna on your roof, you should be good to go.

I'm back

It's been awhile since my last post, not that I publish that frequently anyway. However...

Just got back from a trip of a lifetime tour of Greece.
