What the heck is an IT Architect anyway?

Hmm...

I think before you can define an "I.T. Architect" you need to have a definition of "I.T." that is agreed upon.

Even though it's a concept that has been around for longer I have yet to find any two companies that see it identically, occupying the same role and functions.

That said even though I have my own solid definition of "I.T." I haven't the slightest idea what an I.T. Architect would be and/or do. It sounds like a buzzword to me.

Proper Translation

"Con motivo de una orden judicial solicitada por partes privadas, nos hemos visto obligados a suprimir temporalmente todos o algunos de los resultados relacionados con ésta búsqueda" better translates to:

Due to a judicial order obtained by private parties, we have found ourselves obligated to temporarily suppress some or all of the results related to this search.

I wish that all searches that were filtered showed this type of disclaimer, you can't fault companies when they're forced by proper legal documents. That lawyer however needs to be shut up, and disbarred. And the judges who have let this happen should also be facing severe consequences-though they are probably just ignorant and not malicious.

Besides the diving, the temples, the hill country, the wonderful silks, the wildlife... Gee, no, I can't see why...

Right, I'm off... mine's the one with the well thumbed "lonely planet" in the pocket.
