B.Y.O.T.

B.Y.O.T. No, it's not a typo. It's a trend. It stands for Bring Your Own Technology, or we're going to use what we want, and IT needs to support it.

I wish I was as clever as the headline writers for the NY tabloids. They, like great caricaturists, routinely do a great job of finding the subjects' weak points.

Why do I bring this up? I thought the "B.Y.O.T." headline in a recent CIO magazine article was pretty funny, too. This seems to be getting hotter every day, reminiscent of the early days of PCs and departmental computing. I expect that here, too, the voice of the people will be heard.
