I love PostSecret, and it’s awesome that they did a video of it: http://postsecret.blogspot.com/

I think that drawing templates and MIBs should be freely available. Not a big fan of Visio (my experience of it was based on the badly done just-after-acquisition release which ran very poorly on my work laptop).
But yeah, the sentiment is there!

Heck yeah. I’d forgotten about MIBs, but I’ve definitely expended a few curses trying to find MIBs for things. The most benign cases are where they’re locked up deep in a vendor’s web site, accessible only with a username and password. The worst I’ve seen is EMC, who wanted to charge me for theirs. Um, no.
Thanks for the comment!
