Well then, Jake, look’s like we’re supposed to be really succesful. I think I’ve been scammed.

Patrick says:

Heh,
I don’t know that it’s helped *my* career at all.

maybe i could convince my coworker that reading blogs and blogging at work will help my career.

Jake says:

shannon: Are you reading blogs at work right now! {shocked!}
Is it that they block you on their network from reading blogs by domain name, or can you get to them if you’re sneaky? If it’s the former, I can get you a different address to read this site 🙂

Paul says:

Use some sort of annonymizer (unless their proxy blocks that, too).

Paul says:

Alternatively, you can set your Internet connection up to use a proxy directly. For HTTP, you could use, for example, 212.165.184.101 over port 80.
