We’ve actually run into some concerns with point number five; more specifically, “sending jokes via email that might be racist or discriminatory.”

I know office humor does lighten the mood quite a bit when you’re really in the crunch of things, but it’s hard to gauge the appropriateness of a lot of punch lines if you’re not quite sure what kind of background a lot of your officemates are coming from.

We’re actually considering switching to that system now. With a lot of our work being brought home, (and most of the staff constantly losing their flash drives), we’ve brought up the idea of implementing a remote desktop control service. The connection issue is, of course, one of our primary concerns, but we’re hoping to conduct a number of field tests before going all in on this.

But how has it been on your end so far?

I’m not really sure where to direct this question. I’ve had it for sometime now, but only remembered it again while reading this article.

With regards to keeping data as accessible to the most relevant team members as possible (most especially when it comes to group oriented projects) what’s your take on sites that offer services such as Backpack or Google Wave? I’ve recently realized that such sites may not be as secure as we may think, but are designed to cater to the business-minded individual.

We used to have to bring home some of our work but due to the vulnerabilities these actions present, our office decided to subscribe to a remote desktop control service. It’s a bit of an inconvenience especially if the connection is slow but I guess this is a safer way. Right?
