My titles aren't showing up, or, am I using the invisible ink mode?

Can do more damage than good.  I was scanning in a document and decided to use Paperport (v. 7.0) to accept the feeds.  My first warning was the inability to view all my folders (seems Paperport v 7 had some limitations).  But alas, I scanned all 21 pages to realize that I can't make a pdf until I upgrade and that the OCR text bridge still can't handle a two column page.

Back to Adobe and start over.

USG has an internal blog pilot -- which is not attracting much internal attention at the moment.  From Mr. Scoble of Microsoft we have some hope: 

Fortune Mag writes about corporate blogging.

Fortune Magazine: Wby there's no escaping the blog.

"It's all about openness," says chairman Bill Gates of Microsoft's public blogs like Scobleizer. "People see them as a reflection of an open, communicative culture that isn't afraid to be self-critical."

And if you aren't self-critical, your readers will whoop your behind. As I've learned several times over the past week or so.
