Ok, so Mark and I are not really good at blogging. Perhaps that what was too obvious a statement to even type (since my last blog was end of November and it is now almost May!).. but it was somewhat cathartic to just admit it up front.
Anyhow, over the past several weeks, just when I thought I would retire from the blogging business, a few folks mentioned to me that they found some of my posts interesting. Renewed with self-confidence, I’ve decided to take another stab at this. My goal is to write more often than the spammers write comments in this blog… Well, maybe that is too aggressive. Perhaps I will just commit to writing at least once every two weeks.
That being said, what did we miss over these past several months? Well, too much to really catch up on in detail. Here are the cliff notes:
We had an amazing Lotusphere with lots of sessions, slick demos, and of course interested customers!
We released a portlet on the Portal catalog that will let you run widgets in Portal- even wiring widgets and portlets together.
We had a tiny little update release in January, where we officially rolled out our Feed Control Module to Mashup Center v1.1, which delivers capabilities like rate limiting, IP blocking, and policies.
We received the 2008 Tech Innovator award from VarBusiness. Pretty cool! We also continue to get great press on our product and really good reviews, like this one from Intelligent Enterprise.
The cool little video we created describing what mashups are in web terms won an industry award for our Agency that created it (Outstanding Rich Media Online Ad for the Internet Advertising Competition Awards 2009).
etc. etc. etc.
Now we are about to head to Vegas next week for WebSphere Impact. I think we have 7 or so sessions. In case anyone reading this is going, allow me to plug a few of my sessions:
TPE-2183A How to Develop Widgets in IBM Mashup Center: Concepts and Guidelines

05/04/2009 3:45 pm - 5:00 pm Marco Polo 704 (I will be presenting with a gentleman from Kapsch)
That’s it for now.. more tomorrow. I have a new video I plan to post and write up..
