End of an era... no more Marquam Group/Boom Vang account...
Category Everything Else
After I got laid off from Enron in 2001, I ended up working for Boom Vang Consulting (later to become Marquam Group) for a few years before ending up at my current place of employment. When I left Marquam Group, I negotiated to keep my connection into their network, my email account, and access to the Business Partner Forum and the KnowledgeBase. I also ran the Portland Notes/Domino User Group email from there....
But as of now, I've decided to close that account down. I've transferred the Portland Notes user group mailings to a separate gmail account that seems to be working well. The only mail I still got at that account (other than spam) were Microsoft Certified Professional newsletters (yes, I *do* have a Microsoft certification!). And I found that weeks would go by between visits to the Business Partner Forum. Not that I was really active there anyway, but still...
Just one less thing to keep track of or be responsible for should something go wrong...
Feels strange to shut down an account that you've had for 5+ years... :)
