For example, Golden State Foods, which uses e-mail to order meat, baked goods, sauces, and produce, which it then supplies to McDonald's, sought out other power supplies. Other California users say Domino is so resilient that even unprotected servers come through black outs without any major worries.

"SharePoint also represents a better value than more expensive products such as the Lotus Discovery Server, which lacks document management functionality, a major feature of Microsoft's product," the review says.

A new "unscientific" poll from IT job site JustTechJobs.com may do the same for IT workers. According to the poll, adult male high tech workers have sex 37% more often than men in other careers. More than 7,500 men who work in information systems responded to a marketing poll question about sex habits. The results indicate they have sex 108 times a year, about 37% more often than respondents in a similar survey done by Men's Health magazine. So, if you're looking for a more active love life, get an IT job.
