It has been a cold and soggy Spring in Chicago. But, what a great feeling to have a beautiful 75° day and an empty lunchtime calendar. All over Chicago this scene is being played out today: office mates dining al fresco or lounging in a city park with a (programming) book or laptop with EVDO card.
Is the cold and soggy economy also ready to blossum going into Summer? Sure, there has been some relatively isolated pain caused by the foreclosure spike (still low in absolute numbers), but are companies actually pulling back on their technology spending? Even large retailers I speak to are not indicating a pull pack in IT initiatives--and they have certainly been feeling a slowdown in recent quarters.
