Thats right today I am the only member of the team actually in the office.

Ken and Tjeerd are somewhere in Asia on their way to the India MCT Summit.

Sarah and Joanne are in downtown Seattle telling people about certification.

Dana is relaxing in MSL SE division( her home office)

which leaves me the only one in the Bellevue office.

And that of course left me to ask, what sort of trouble I can get into.

You have heard we just moved into our new offices here in Bellevue and its quite a nice upgrade.

The only problem is the offices all have a big window that you are sitting in front of that looks into the hallway, which means I see everyone passing by and get distracted.

So I need a few ideas on what to put up in the window to help me keep focused on doing work for you guys out there, the bright shiny factor is very high with me.

So post a suggestion of what to put up and I will eventually post pictures when I finish it.

How about a giant certification roadmap so you will be constantly reminded about the courses that need to go out the door and the courseware that needs to be revamped (i.e. Fixed) as well as the mountains of new certs that have been created.

@ J. Goodwin,

I like that idea as a reference, but not totally related to what I do.  It makes the list though.

Hey Bill

how about pictures of MCTs and others that you have met from all around the world. It will help you feel more connected to all of us and you can grow the collection over time, maybe with a world map and lines connecting photos to places, maybe with flags on the map denoting MSL/MCT/MS events like the Summits, Tech.Ed etc.

I like Petes idea, I will have to see if I can print up some of the pictures.

and maybe combine the two to have the pictures tied to the map in some way.
