We lost our network connectivity (at our office) today. For a company like ours, it's a big blow. A couple of observations.
- they should turn off the network for an hour everyday. We had some GREAT ad-hoc collaboration discussions that would not have occurred otherwise. We're all so stuck in email that we lose the people touch
- this is a good argument for the "thick client". If you do everything through your browser and your network goes down, you're out of luck. At least, I could do some things using just my PC.
- It was interesting to see, however, just how dependent we are on the Internet. We kept saying, "I'll send you that file" or "let me get that from the team share" and then realized we couldn't.
