It's an election year, and that means that in a few months, thousands will be looking for jobs, either in or out of government, depending on the fate of their side. 

I had the opportunity to meet someone who is trying to help out the venerable institution of resume writing by opening it up to the wisdom of crowds and professionals alike. Razumes calls itself a "social resume writing" service but I see much more potential for "crowdsourcing" (I hate that term, btw) of other things.

Why? My current employer has a wonderful policy that nothing goes out without being looked at by at least two, sometimes three other people. Perspective and distance allow objective critiques. More on these guys later, but probably not in this space.

The other is MetaNotes. Think of it as a huge sticky-note board for your browser. I had the opportunity to converse with their CEO at SxSW last March and I've been loving their product more and more. I use it as a virtual whiteboard so I can organize and prioritize my ideas and work schedule.

There's one thing I can't give up, however. Outlook. All my love to Google, but until you integrate messaging, calendaring and tasks into one screen, with push and sync on a device with a keyboard, you've lost me. I'm excited for Android, but I want to see exchange server integration.

Microsoft, if they were smart, would spin off Outlook/Exchange/Entourage/Messenger into a new connectivity company. The technology is good. Put more effort into the front end, maybe a surface email client. That's the job. Fix email. Exchange is good. I say this as a Linux loving Mac Fanboy. I Love. Exchange.

Now make it better.
