The first ever HTML edition of the MTS Edge newsletter went out today - and thanks for all the positive feedback on the format and content.

This month's Talking Point is "Protecting Your Job In A Recession", and looks at the current state of economic affairs in Sales Engineer-land and offers some tips to make yourself more visible and invaluable. The second section suggests what you can do if you know you are going to need a new job soon. (I can always point you towards a few good recruiters too!).

The SE Question of the Month deals with "How To Eliminate Filler Words". Every presentation class, article and workshop tells you it is a good idea to eradicate the ums, ers, ahs and basicallys from your speech. So how do you do that? Read on for some practical and proven advice.
