usage than I am. I wrote that up in <a href="https://utcc.utoronto.ca/~cks/space/blog/sysadmin/ProceduresVsChecklists">ProceduresVsChecklists</a>, but the
short summary is that I am focused on checklists that are used for
one time things, not as part of routine procedures.</p>
<p>(I agree with his general points, though.)</p>

I've been using them, and I really like what they offer for so little effort. </p>
<p>Also, I don't have the trackback url yet, but I'm linking to this on this morning's article about pre-emptive troubleshooting on <a href="http://standalone-sysadmin.blogspot.com">Standalone Sysadmin</a>. </p>
