When I am on a project with a client or working from home, it certainly helps me to feel connected to IBM. Aaron I wish I blogged more behind the firewall! I don't manage to get there quite enough. Serena, nice post. Glad you found inspiration. Luis and Aaron – blogging has definitely helped for the reasons you mention.

I like the fact you seem to keep a nice balance between the two sides of the firewall. Forgot to mention: I’m much more active internally than externally with all this social networking thing.

I'm in Services, and used to spend 99% of my working time at client offices. In a given stretch, I was assigned to the same client for 5 years (different projects). At the end of that period, I felt more like a client employee than an IBMer. Once I started blogging internally, I felt that I had just moved to a virtual IBM office. I'm still working at client locations, but I'm also having smalltalk and serious conversations with IBMers like the old water-cooler days. There's some trade-offs: I still miss the face-to-face interactions - I actually have no idea how you look or sound like, for example - but on the other side, there's no geography- or time-related barriers.
