Labor Day LinkfestHappy Labor Day weekend! Though the Northeast looks like it's in for a rainy one, I'm hoping for sun on Monday. In the meantime, there's plenty to read: Two new links in the Blogroll: CRN's Russ Redman is guest blogging on the channel and distribution over at TechSearch. In particular, keep an eye on Russ's coverage of Apple, a company he knows well. Meanwhile, my fellow Stony Brook alum, David Ewalt, is blogging over at forbes.com on the collision of internet technologies with the business and consumer markets. VARBusiness has nominations open for their new Technologist of the Year award, but only for one more week. Nominate the person who gets the bits flying in your organization. Today's soundtrack: Bob Dylan's new When The Deal Goes Down, at AOL Music, with a video featuring Scarlett Johansson. For a more upbeat Bob, check out Unbelievable, from 1990. The starlet in that one is Molly Ringwald. Top articles on the ChannelWeb network in August: After a slow start, the hurricane season has picked up. If you need to keep an eye on the weather, there's nowhere better than the StormTrack blog. Some employment links: no surprise, but Most IT Pros Are Looking For A New Job. It's tough to keep 'em satisfied, particularly if they have business skills to go with their technical abilities. Unfortunately, it looks like a bunch of people will be out on the job hunt with Intel on their resumes. And speaking of employment, Barry Ritholtz is not at all happy with today's job report, or the coverage thereof. Slate started this blog earlier in the summer, but I only chanced upon it this week: Blogging The Bible. Very funny, very insightful. Have faith! Wish I was there: Microsoft Awards $951 Million In Bonuses. Have a good weekend! Lawrence Walsh recommends you take some time to unconnect this weekend. Whether he will is still an open question.
