Break down the term Information Technology. What do those words suggest? To me, a field that facilitates the input, output, storage and analysis of information. An person who works in Information Technology could specialize in any function that keeps information moving. The lowly support specialists that work the help desk keep the users productive so that they can continue to enter data. The basic technicians ensure that the operating system runs as intended and that the hardware is upgraded as necessary. The software developers write code that allows data to be entered and processed in new ways. The hardware engineers design better machines to run the new code written by the developers. The technicians keep those better machines working, and the support specialists continue to aid the users. It's all about INFORMATION and it's TECHNOLOGY. It's a big circle, and you're in the food chain. It's true, you're all in IT together.
