So have you ever gone to the shoe store, but you forgot to wear socks.
Well, this is what you get to try-on shoes.
These absolutely crappy, thin, brownish wades of disposable nylon socks.
How completely unappealing--especially piled up like this and looking like they are getting reused again and again.
The try-on socks look shitty, feel shitty, and don't help you try-on anything, because they aren't the same density or texture as regular socks.
Talk about penny wise and dollar foolish--if the store won't even invest in a proper pair of socks for their customers, then how much do they value their business?
How about an intelligent shoe store with a little class that actually has some real pairs of socks for their customers, and when you're done they send them out to the cleaners or maybe even let you keep the pair if you buy the shoes! ;-)

Best Animated Shoes
These are some very cool shoes--different!
My daughter found these on Youtube
They are made by this unboring shoe company in the U.K. called Irregular Choice.
Walking on the back of a dragon cannot be a bad thing.
Stepping alternatively on the bride and groom--maybe an interesting perspective on the ins and outs of marriage.
They also have a neat pair of Panda shoes.
Check these out, I think you'll look cool and really like it. ;-)

It's cheaper, it's faster, "every employee is a technologist," and those organizations "concerned about the security issues of shadow IT are missing the point; the bigger risk is not embracing it in the first place."
How very bold or stupid?
Let everyone buy whatever they want when they want--behavior akin to little children running wild in a candy store.
So I guess that means...
- Enterprise architecture planning...not important.
- Sound IT governance...hogwash.
- A good business case...na, money's no object.
- Enterprise solutions...what for?
- Technical standards...a joke.
- Interoperability...who cares?
- Security...ah, it just happens!
Well, Mims just got rids of decades of IT best practices, because he puts all his faith in the cloud.
It's not that there isn't a special place for cloud computing, BYOD, and end-user innovation, it's just that creating enterprise IT chaos and security cockiness will most-assuredly backfire.
From my experience, a hybrid governance model works best--where the CIO provides for the IT infrastructure, enterprise solutions, and architecture and governance, while the business units identify their specific requirements on the front line and ensure these are met timely and flexibly.
The CIO can ensure a balance between disciplined IT decision-making with agility on day-to-day needs.
Yes, the heavens will not fall down when the business units and IT work together collaboratively.
While it may be chic to do what you want when you want with IT, there will come a time, when people like Mims will be crying for the CIO to come save them from their freewheeling, silly little indiscretions.
