I have just come across an interesting blog by Charlie Wardell in the States. If you are looking for a short discussion on the relative merits of MPP (Massively Parallel Processing) database products from Teradata, Netezza and Vertica then read "...And This Database Is Just Right".
He has also recently looked into the popularity of Google searches on Teradata, Netezza, Vertica, ParAccel, and Greenplum here. If you're about to place a bet on which vendor will increase their market share then this is a good place to start.
Family Game Nights are a dying tradition, it's so sad! There's no betetr way to spend quality time with the most important people in your life we recently started doing a monthly Neighborhood Family Game Night; the first week of every month, all the families in the neighborhood get together (we rotate houses, and the host house provides dinner!), we play team games, have with small prizes, and set up a projector to watch movies! It's a great way to get to know the families in the neighborhood, make new friends, welcome newcomers to the neighborhood, and spend a fun night with your family! :)
