KB Digest

We’re Moving! Update your bookmarks

Rick Blythe — Fri, 13 Jan 2017 17:26:02 +0000

We have an important announcement today regarding this blog.

Since 2007 the KB Digest has been published weekly, containing all the new KBs published by product the previous week.

What is being changed, and why?

The KB Digest is being merged with its sister blog- The Support Insider. We will continue to publish the same content weekly, just in a new location. With one central location for all GSS communications with the outside we expect to be able to build our brand and broaden our audience.

Specifics:

Starting Jan 16 2017 no new content will be published to The KB Digest blog. Current content will remain active for one month after which the blog will be removed.
New posts will be found at The Support Insider, under the category KB Digest.
RSS subscribers will continue to receive updates uninterrupted (ie: no changes to your subscription are needed).

New KB articles published for week ending 01/03/17
