Optimal IdM recently released a video showing just how easy it is to install and configure the Virtual Identity Server. The video takes just 5 minutes, mainly because, well, that’s all the time you need. So, I was beginning to think about things that you can’t do in 5 minutes. Here’s just a snippet of my list:

• Smoke a cigarette
• Wash your car
• Take a shower
• Make Breakfast (toast doesn’t count)
• Drink a cup of coffee
• Commute to work (well, this one wouldn’t apply to telecommuters) – Heck, I’ve seen red-lights that last 5 minutes!!

My point here is that it’s incredible to think of how easy we made the installation and configuration of VIS. This allow our clients the ability to spend more time on planning and thinking of just how to benefit from this technology, and less time thinking/worrying about how to get the darn thing to work (out-of-the-box). Be sure to check out some of the other videos in our growing collection.
