Mix is Live
Today is a big day for Oracle and our team. We have been cranking pretty hard for the last 6 weeks to get here. Where are we you ask? We’ll, I like to think of it as camp. Y’know in those everest trips how the teams have to reach a series [...]
Why 2.0 Didn’t Start in the Enterprise
As I was sitting down with the family enjoying some Baskin Robbins (Peanut Butter Chocolate rules!) last night I began to wonder why all this cool new “2.0″ stuff didn’t originate in the existing companies providing software to enterprises?
Since the new web is a lot about enabling people to share information, it seems likely that [...]
McAfee’s Own 9x Problem
As I sat this week at the Gartner conference, I had the opportunity to hear Andrew McAfee speak about Enterprise 2.0. One of the things I enjoyed hearing live was the 9x problem. He has written about it before, but the phenomenon is that we tend to overestimate the value of current solutions [...]
The Wisdom of Eight Year Olds
Last weekend I was at my nephew’s 8th birthday party. As luck would have it, my sister had placed out a few jars of candy with a pen and paper so the kids could guess the number of items in each jar. The usual suspects of jelly bellies, gum, and mints were all [...]
Office 2.0 Conference Review
Last Thursday and Friday I was at the Office 2.0 Conference in SF held at the St. Regis hotel. The event came off as a success and I enjoyed the venue, meeting new people and sharing my thoughts on the Enterprise Collaboration panel. I especially thought Dan Farber did a nice job keeping [...]
Everything New is a Swimming Pool
Yesterday, I was having one of my usual days. Trying to convince people that we need to do something different and getting blocked at every turn.
It’s incredible that no matter how good the idea, it will always be met with a challenge. It got me thinking…Are there any ideas that are SO [...]
Enterprise 2.0 Is Different, Wan’t to Know Why?
Like most people interested in 2.0, I have been at this web thing for a while. From the days of dialing into BBS systems, to Mosaic, all the way to the beautiful Interfest we have today of Facebook, Flickr, and much more.
As I talk to people looking to take some of this digital goodness [...]
Find Me at the Office 2.0 Conference
Next week is the Office 2.0 Conference made immortal by their offer of free iphones to all participants. The conference looks to have a good mix of participation and as luck would have it, I’ll be speaking on a panel covering Enterprise 2.0 Collaboration. That session is Friday afternoon, but you can [...]
Why Social Networks Don’t Work for Business
Web 2.0 seems to get all the press these days. I kinda feel sorry for its less popular stepchild known as Enterprise 2.0. It smacks of some suit trying so hard to be cool and hip, but alas, we all know that enterprise software will never be the coolest thing around. [...]

Oracle Gets Social
Here on the AppsLab team we have always been big believers in the power of people as a design point in applications. My personal background is in the portal space, and for years we preached people-centric. In those days, it meant a user had a configurable homepage with all the content they cared [...]
Oracle, delivered…
Need your daily dose of Oracle? I ran across some cool RSS feeds to keep track of what’s going on. I personally read the Corporate News and the Application News. Of course you can always add our feed as well if you’re feeling lucky.
If you have other cool Oracle feeds I haven’t [...]
