A link for a Friday afternoon: Monty Python alum John Cleese reprises his role as Dr. Harold Twain Weck, director of the Institute for Backup Trauma, in staffing the
Friendly Advice Machine for IT Professionals [1]. Dr. Weck answers a set of point-and-click questions such as “How can I get our executives in trouble” and “How do I keep Mr. Wiggles from destroying electronic evidence” as well as “What is Rule 26.”
Oh, and also “do you really have an Iron Mountain?” Dr. Weck is a character Cleese created for a wildly successful series of
webinars for LiveVault [2], which has since been bought by Iron Mountain Digital. Can you make IT pros smile while pitching them backup services?
