Last Thursday night I attended a corporate reception that I couldn’t resist. Internap, a Internet backbone provider, was providing a tour of its SAS70, Secure Data Center in Tukwila, WA. Once I arrived there – I got a double-dip! Charles Carkeek, a long-time SMB Nation tribal member, was also an invited guest and we greatly enjoyed catching up. He claims that my book, SMB Consulting Best Practices, got his daughter interested in technology and she recently completed a Masters degree in the area (thanks for the love tap Charles but your daughter deserves all the credit).
Anyways – see the video interview HERE with an Internap executive (
Randy Ortiz). And please send help – I’m stuck inside the Internet (this literally could have happened with the Internap man traps, cameras, barbed wire and other security enhancements). Guess I’ll be blogging from inside the Internet for awhile. Heck – I always wanted to be an Internet insider!
