This is what you get on a blog that you won't get on a static page of a corporate Web site. Writes Jonathan Schwartz, COO of Sun Microsystems:

One of the big upsides of my job is hobnobbing. I clearly didn't check with our corporate communications team before saying that, but let's be honest - it's cool to sit with a head of state, or a head of a corporation, or a CIO with an IT department bigger than Sun's entire employee base.

I know he’s a fave of yours, Debbie.  But is he really a blogger if he doesn’t have the comment function turned on?  Or is he just a post-er boy, possibly not too interested in dialogue or feedback?

I’m getting a ton of “comment spam” and “trackback spam” on this blog. Which has nowhere near the readership of Jonathan’s. It’s a huge pain in the neck and I can’t keep up with deleting it. So if time and resources are one reason that Sun doesn’t have comments and trackbacks turned on, I can sympathize.
