Hi Everyone,

I have been a long time reader of both the articles and the forums. Many of times I have had an opinion and just thought ? IF I had an account I could express them LOL

Anyways, so as my first post I was curious what the division of forum users are either,

A: Work in an IT enviroment

Or

B: Just love Computers / Electronics

Would love to hear back from people ? Myself I have been within the IT world for over 10 years.

QUESTION: Do you work in an IT enviroment or do you just enjoy computers / electronics?

I'm at uni just now doing a degree in Multimedia Technology but on my days off I fix and build computers for people in the area and also help some local businesses with setting up networks, upgrading, tech support etc. Also yes I love technology, I'm not obsessed with gadgets or anything but I love getting myself something new to play with every so often and like to keep up with current tech news. Ohh and welcome to the forums :)

Trying to get into IT because I love technology. I'm thinking about getting my Network+ and maybe even Novel certs. Currently have my IC3, but that's easy stuff.

Not sure If I would put too much in to Novell unless there is a place you want to work at really bad that still uses a lot of Novell.. Just my two cents.. If you get hired on, you will learn 100x more in two weeks than you would in a class room.. Certs are good, especially for getting that first job.. but I would focus more into Cisco (that is where the money is at) and VmWare..

Yes, I work in IT and I love technology.. I am a system admin and have a love/hate relationship with my job.. I'm sure every System Admin from middle to large companies will understand.. lol

I'm an Electrical Engineer by trade, but I do IT(ish) consulting on the side. It's relaxing and fun to work with clients.

Definitely love electronics. A big reason for becoming an Engineer was so I could afford my gf and plenty of toys for myself. :rofl:

    • Threads scales past half a billion users, brings deeper community and feed controls by Fiza Ali Meta has announced Threads crossing a major milestone of 500 million monthly active users. And, at the heart of this growth sits something simple: communities. From books to basketball, parenting to music, Threads says its rise has been powered by people clustering around shared interests and, in turn, giving the platform its identity. In response, the platform is expanding its Communities feature beyond beta and introducing a set of new tools designed to make participation easier and more engaging. A redesigned Communities Hub will now appear in the main navigation menu, allowing users to jump between groups without leaving their feed. Each community will also receive a distinct Community Icon, giving them clearer visual identity and making them easier to recognise across the platform. Then there’s Community Progress, which is a kind of live gauge showing how close a topic is to becoming a full-fledged community, alongside guidance on how users can contribute to its development. In addition, Meta is also expanding its Community Champions programme, recognising more users who actively contribute to community engagement. And then things go more local; Local Communities is already available in 100 countries, including North America, South America, Asia, and Europe but are now rolling out with native-language tags starting in Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan. The platform is also expanding Live Chats to more communities in the coming weeks, adding features such as co-hosting and the ability to quote moments directly into users’ feeds. Beyond communities, Meta is tightening the loop between users and their feeds. Earlier this year came "Dear Algo," a feature that lets people tell Threads what they want more or less of. Now it’s being paired with a new tool, "Your Algo." It allows people to adjust how frequently certain topics appear, with options lasting one, three, or seven days. Meta says these preferences remain private and can be managed alongside “Dear Algo” in a unified settings hub. The rollout begins in the US, Canada, UK, Australia, and New Zealand. Finally, the company says these changes are part of an ongoing effort to refine Threads based on user feedback and that further updates will continue as the platform evolves.
