Cisco should hold a contest.....

Every time I go to Cisco's website for CCVP info, I'm amazed at its immensity. Cisco - for fun and good PR exposure, IMHO - should hold a contest to see who comes closest to guessing how many total pages there are at their website. Like guessing how long an ice block will melt to win the price. I wonder if anyone there really knows? It's like the Frankenstein's monster - it's gotten way out of control as it lumbers down the Internet road. icon_pirat.gif

    SMACK!

    Focus!! Stop lallygagging around the Cisco Docs.

    Use the search function -- you're not in a CCIE Lab Exam. If you don't find your answer in the first few relevant documents, reevaluate your search criteria.

    If you're sightseeing in the Cisco Documentation like a tourist, you're not studying!

    In the Other Cisco Resources section of the CCVP FAQ there is a link to some Cisco Training Resources for Using the Technical Support and Documentation Website.

    Last time I counted there were 143,238 -- but that wasn't counting the 6500 docs for the WS-X6608-T1 blade that weren't related to DSP and Transcoding. But I think they've released another few CallManager releases since then, so there's probably 4700+ new pages (including the release notes).

    But seriously, get back to the books icon_study.gif

    Lallygagging counts as mine -- my FireFox spell checker was complaining about lollygagging.... but the OnLine Merriam-Webster has both with the same definition -- fool around : dawdle

    I've now added lollygagging to my spell checker (and fixed the somc to some, which I missed in my original post icon_lol.gif )

    Enough lollygagging and/or lallygagging following the dawdle link....

    I usually hang out on 224.0.0.10 (FF02::A) and 224.0.0.5 (FF02::5) when I'm in a non-proprietary mood.
