Review: Susan Bradley on Patch Management
I just finished listening to SBS Show episode #8. It was published 4 days ago. I'm just now getting to it, and that's okay. Podcasts are about time-shifting, or listening when it is convenient for you. I've heard comments like "I don't have an hour to dedicate to listening to an in-depth technical podcast every week". That's okay, too. Split your listening in to 20- or 30-minute chunks. Fast-forward through the bits you don't like. This isn't radio, you know <grin>. Now, on to the review.
There's a ton of good information in this show - Microsoft MVP Susan Bradley is widely recognized as the expert on the subject of patching an SBS box properly. She shares her knowledge of what can be a rather dry subject in a very compelling and entertaining way. I was very impressed with the way they were able to cover Microsoft Windows Update, WSUS, patch management, and more in a little over an hour. Highly recommended.
One point of contention - Vlad makes a comment about Microsoft blogs being filtered. That's absolutely not the case. Nobody reviews or edits this blog before I hit the 'submit' button. Microsoft has made huge strides in the last few years in supporting, encouraging, and empowering its employees to give back to the community. A big part of that is sharing our voices, unfiltered.
Anyway - if you haven't heard the podcast, download it now: {MP3} ... and then listen at your liesure :)
