IT: Chief cook and bottle washer, in many cases

ZDNet has a good piece on what "your IT staff wants to address but is afraid to tell you". I'm sure these things are relevant in large companies, but in smaller companies the IT staff is often a lone guy or gal who got thrust into their position because they were the only one who could locate the phone jacks and who knew where the power button on a computer was. The concept of Web 2.0 isn't going to be on their company's horizon for years to come. I'm not knocking anyone's situation. It's just the way it is. I do dare to say that there are a lot more companies with a lone IT person than companies with a sizeable IT department.
