The iPad is unlike any other enterprise technology, delivered to market by a vendor seemingly indifferent to CIOs, and surrounded by mass media-fed confusion. How can CIOs cope?

Skidmore College: Salmagundi Home
june 2011 by gdw
SALMAGUNDI is a quarterly of the Humanities and Social Sciences which is addressed to the “general” reader rather than to the academic specialist. Founded in 1965 and published since 1969 at Skidmore College, the magazine routinely publishes essays, reviews, interviews, fiction, poetry, regular columns, polemics, debates and symposia. It is widely regarded as one of the most influential intellectual quarterlies in the United States, and though it is often discussed as a “little magazine,” it is by no means predominantly belletristic or narrow in its purview or its audience.
