Cisco uses cool words like “web 2.0″

I just like this article in IT World on so many levels — the fact that Mr. Chambers wants to talk about Web 2.0 is probably better than him talking about the “you tubes” and such — but I think that when you see Cisco next to Web 2.0 it just doesn’t look right. You know, it’s like the really nerdy kid that wants to sit next to the cool kids in school, and I mean cool like old school high tops and jeans with black t-shirts cool.

And in my second favorite quote by a big wig today that makes them look like they really really want to be friends with the cool kids – here is John Chambers on why they are doing this: “Video is changing work and life while also driving sales of Cisco’s infrastructure” Well at least he put that last statement in there – he is afterall a very rational person, cool no, but rational and square, yes.
