01.15.10 Manufacturing Business Technology Officially Closes Its Doors By Christopher P. Sciacca As reported by Jim Brown on his blog, the veteran magazine, Manufacturing Business Technology is closing shop. I've been a big fan of this trade magazine since I came into SCM back in 1996. Back then I first met some of the MBT team including Kevin Parker, Sid Hill and Roberto Michel at NDES in Chicago and I always recall great discussions and insightful viewpoints. While I don't think this points to any negative trend in supply chains, because they are still just as critical today as ever before, it does point to a massive change in the way people get news. I'm not sure how long the MBT blogs will remain up or the website for that matter, but if you never turned the page of this venerable publication give it a click to show your appreciation for what they have achieved over the years.  If you are a fan of MBT like me, share thoughts and comments below to let the team know. Comments About the Author: Christopher P. Sciacca is located in Brno, Czech Republic where he is the manager of strategic communications for Europe and Africa for IBM's global delivery business. His responsibilities include helping global delivery employees across Europe and Africa understand IBM's strategy and how they contribute to it. He is also introducing the latest in Web 2.0 technologies including virtual worlds and social networks to employees to help them make connections that count globally. He is also responsible for external communications, where he works with members of the press, academia, government officials and analysts to help them understand IBM's strategy of becoming a globally integrated company. He currently keeps an acclaimed and widely read blog called "Why supply chains rock?", which takes a simple, yet entertaining look at the impact of supply chains on daily life.
