Top ITIL Myths January 5, 2004 By George Spafford and Gene Kim
Many IT organizations attempting to increase service levels, decrease costs and improve security look to the ITIL framework for guidance. ITIL, or the IT Infrastructure Library, is widely accepted as the world's leading compilation of IT best practices.

A large and increasing number of organizations rely on ITIL. In the U.S., organizations such as Procter & Gamble, Caterpillar, State Farm and Boeing have shared how they have incorporated aspects of ITIL and IT Service Management into their IT management strategies. However, many misconceptions still exist about ITIL, which sometimes confound even long-time IT practitioners. Here are some of the top ITIL myths and misconceptions, as well as their corresponding realities.

The Information Technology Infrastructure Library, a group of standards for service, is gaining acceptance as a non-proprietary framework for IT projects. See how one service-level administrator helped integrate ITIL into his organization.

The IT Skeptic
A critical look at ITIL, CMDB, itSMF and related topics. Often has news of ITIL ahead of official announcements.

BOKKED: the Body of Knowledge Known Error Database

This is just a start. If you can add more, go for it.
