A New Look for Productivity@Work

Welcome to a new year of Productivity@Work! With it comes a new look, and, more importantly, a new approach. In the coming year, our goal is to work harder to drill into each issue’s theme in greater depth. For example, this edition focuses on cloud computing. As powerful as cloud computing appears to be, a recent study from 7th Sense Research notes that only about 27 percent of small businesses have bought into it; perhaps because the concept can seem daunting. To that end, the content you’ll find here is all about breaking down cloud computing and its benefits, the applications that really work for small business, and the real costs of putting it to work. You’ll also find additional resources designed to help you learn even more.

We hope you like what you read in this issue and the new direction we’ve taken. At Comcast, we want Productivity@Work to work hard for you, covering topics that are relevant to your business. If there are any subjects you’d like to see covered in future issues, or if you have comments or other suggestions, email us at Editor_at_newsletter@cable.comcast.com.
