Cut the bull
I've been using Bullfighter for about a month now, and it's helping me de-bureaucrateseize my memorable office memos. It's a free download from Deloitte Consulting, whose web writers could benefit from a Bullfighter install to rid themselves of such terms as "reengineer," which is right there on the corporate website.

Here's what Bullfighter's biggest fans aren't saying about the product.

"A value-added, leverageable global knowledge repository."

"Repurposeable, leading edge thoughtware that delivers results-driven value."

"A future-proof asset that seamlessly empowers your mission critical enterprise communications."

"Bullfighter could be all of these things," the website says. "Except that we have no idea what any of these things are."

Me either. But I think I'll hear a few of these phrases in this afternoon's staff meeting.

Bonus item: Need to obfuscate? Longing to communicate in big, meaningless IT buzz? Then you need this. Think of it as the anti-Bullfighter.
