ManicMadman Posted December 18, 2007 Posted December 18, 2007 Hello All Just a quick message to say hello. I am the ICT Strategic Manager (an inflated title for network manager) at a large secondary on the south side of Gloucester. Joining as I need to ask for some help on some projects that are in the pipeline that our SLT have decided need to be dealt with by the start of next academic year, namely wireless networking and VLEs. Hopefully you will be able to help and in some instances hopefully I will be able to help you. Nice to meet you all Frankie aka Manic

brokenlove Posted December 30, 2007 Posted December 30, 2007 Hello all at edugeek i am a new user here I enjoy spending most my time in the 3D World on computers and i am at the moment trying to make a game without spenting any of my money.
Driver Posted January 3, 2008 Posted January 3, 2008 I'm an IT contractor from Australia. I'm between two schools each week, one with ~900 computers, the other has ~220. Been doing school IT for about six years now for a handfull of other schools, both public & private. After reading a bit of this forum, I'd have to say there's some quite good info on here! And I also develop http://www.netbootdisk.com
GrumbleDook Posted January 3, 2008 Posted January 3, 2008 Good to see you here, Brad. Glad you find the site handy and good to see more Australians arriving.
jack0w Posted January 11, 2008 Posted January 11, 2008 I've been lurking on the forums for a while, have to say some of the info has been brilliant, just haven't found the time to signup! I was persuaded to do so yesterday while having a chat at the Edugeek stand at BETT! I'm working as a Senior ICT Technician at a Secondary School in Horsham, around 500 or so computers on the network, started out here nearly three years ago as my first job in IT and the network was pretty shocking! We've completely rebuilt the network, bought in new servers and upgraded to Server 2003. Feb half-term will see a new set of switches going in and the purchase of a couple of servers for our new thin client network.
b4bob Posted January 16, 2008 Posted January 16, 2008 Hi everbody. Just registered as new into a 'management' post at a 800+ student grammar school. Now wear a tie to work as 'assist system manager' on RM CC3 ntwk. Previously travelling 1st line tech to primary schools with NYCC (W2003/XP), so new big trainset to play with now. Have fun.....
datalas Posted January 16, 2008 Posted January 16, 2008 I thought I should introduce myself, although I've already met some of you in person. I'm Darren Taylor, a senior software engineer (according to my boss anyhow) at SmoothWall Ltd and was one of the people handing out Smoothies at BETT. Blame Tom "stumpy" Newton for me being here, then again you can do as I do and just blame him for more or less anything you like, most of it goes over his head
ConTheITGuy Posted January 16, 2008 Posted January 16, 2008 ...SmoothWall Ltd and was one of the people handing out Smoothies at BETT. Aah! Now I get it - Smoothies - Smoothwall! God I am slow. Andy
BenHardy Posted January 17, 2008 Posted January 17, 2008 Hi I was employed as an IT Technician because the Network Manager and his assistant were snowed under. Two weeks before I started the assistant left and the day I started the Network Manager announced he was leaving in 3 weeks! Having had very little experience of network management, after two weeks on my own, I am now totally stressed, dazed and confused. Apart from that, the salary is insulting for such responsibility. Am I completely crazy? If not now, then I soon will be.
DevilsAdvocate Posted January 17, 2008 Posted January 17, 2008 Welcome Ben It only gets better from here on in! Rob.

StuDavies Posted January 25, 2008 Posted January 25, 2008 Hi, After teaching for more years than I care to admit have taken early retirement and got a job as an IT tech. Some would say I'm having to do some real work for the first time!!! I'm in one of the Kent schools that's going BSF so life is likely to get interesting............... Been doing it now 6 months, really enjoying it and realising how little I know. Cheers Stu
