• Comment: I started out as a Windows Sys Admin, then, after gaining experience in both Novell and Unix, I discovered that the term Windows Sys Admin is an oxymoron. I underwent a number of *oh!* moments as I developed my skills away from windoze - my personal favourite was the blindingly simple revaltion that in Unix everything is a file and what this meant for system administration and shell scripting. I only mention this because I experienced the same kind of shock on the Twiki web, "oh my god, it can't be that simple!"

But it is. I am trying to get twiki used for our company ISO document server but whether or not I suceed in this particular enterprise I can safely say that any company I work at will have a wikiweb from now on.
