NASA CIO wants an all powerful smartphone, help with NASA LAN and a cool shower cap?
NASA telescopes watch cosmic violence, mysteries unravel
From her blog:
- Anyway, Santa, I’d like it very, very much if you would grant my wishes this year because I’ve been a very, very, very good girl this year. And I made my list short, so that you and the elves won’t have to work so hard. Here it is:
- I’d like a smartphone that can last all day without needing another charge.
- I’d like to actually be selected from a waitlist for an upgrade on my next flight to one of the NASA Centers in California.
- And Santa Baby, I’d sit on your lap for a shower cap in hotels because this little girl does not have wash-and-wear hair.
- I’d like a local area Network for NASA – just one though. Ok, maybe three. Oh, Santa Dear, can it be secure and flexible – just like a metal Slinky, but better? And real big so it can stretch across the world.
- Oh, Santa, I need a ginormous amount of inexpensive, reliable storage so that the smart little girls and boys at NASA can store their science data.
- Can I PLEASE have an Enterprise Calendaring solution that actually works? Not for me, but for the good little girls and boys at NASA. Please?
