The Hard Work of Failure Analysis
	Writing in the Harvard Business School's Working Knowledge newsletter, Amy Edmondson and Mark Cannon look at The Hard Work of Failure Analysis.

Public Interest Registry eNewsletter

I'm delighted to see the Public Interest Registry launch an eNewsletter. It only comes out quarterly, so there's a good chance you'll forget you subscribed by the time the next issue makes it to your spam-choked inbox, but I have to say that I think PIR got their content right. I was worried that they would try to reproduce the work of various assistance providers, but instead they are focusing on their area of expertise and teaching readers about the technologies, programs and policies that affect how the Internet functions. The inaugural issue includes information about international domain names and an introduction to PIR's parent organization, the Internet Society. Posted: 8/23/05; 3:07:16 PM #
