When IT Pros Rock

When individuals shatter stereotypes they bust down walls, rip apart limitations and force everyone to see there are always new possibilities. Josh Hilliker has been relentless and always willing to step into the pit, mosh a bit and show people can join together, try new things and learn from one another. He does this out of pure interest in the power of people he meets. At IDF in San Francisco Intel hosted a discussion “Social Media: Friend or Foe of IT?” Josh is the guy who’ll stop at nothing to get friends and foes to talk, hash things out and get movin’ ahead rather then stay stuck in the mud.

This is a cool subterranean, beat-driven cocktail lounge chat about the video competition Josh has going for IT pros. He wants to get the proest of IT pro talking…and havin’ some fun facing today’s most major enterprise computing challenges. Bust out your best!

Hey, looks like that guy spilled Intel vPro on his shirt! Nice to see Robert Scoble advising Josh Hilliker how to eat right while enjoying social media.

Not sure either actually ate lunch — Scoble and Hillier have great, positive energy and are wonderful storytellers.
