Welcome!

Hello and welcome to Terry's UMUC Blog! Sure, this page was created out of necessity (as required by ITEC 610). But you know what? This page will be more than that (and much more than my last site). Visit here frequently to hear me wax ecstatic about my degree program, the lessons learned during my IT adventure, and perhaps some carefully-worded (read: hastily blurted) commentary. Have fun!
