Book Review: One Step at A Time. The book I won at MWLUG

One Step at a time by Josh Bleill is one of the best books I have read in a long time. This is an amazing story about Josh who served in Iraq and lost both his legs from an IED.

This book is definitely one for the reading list. If anyone does not believe those who serve, especially those who have given their life or been crippled, are amazing heroes well you will after reading this book. How could anyone feel bad for themselves after reading this story.

I must also give extreme praise for the Indianapolis Colts organization. What they have done for Josh is truly amazing. Now I am an avid New England Patriots fan, so I never had much love for the Colts. I can honestly say they are now my second favorite football team in the NFL.

So get the book and learn of Josh's amazing journey.

I am Speaking at MWLUG

I have been fortunate enough to be selected to speak on one of my favorite topics at MWLUG.
Going to Xpages, the Why and What of web enabling and/or mobilizing your Lotus Notes applications
 There have been and will be a lot of great sessions on how to do XXXX with Xpages. You must see as many of them as you can. But first you need to know what to modernize/mobilize. John Kingsley and i will take you on a journey of what makes sense to modernize and , more importantly, what NOT to.
We see many clients wanting to add Xpages to everything. While, as consultants that is a good paycheck, it is really not a feasible approach. So come and see us.

Moving forward by going back!



Interesting title, reminds me of a movie Back to the Future.

So what does this mean?  Well as of Monday July 22nd 2013 I will be back at Teamstudio.

Teamstudio is doing a lot of new and exciting development and it will be great to be involved.

 So if Mobile is in your future, contact me after my start date and let’s talk.

IBM Connections; future or passing fad

I want to get everyone's opinion on this. I am not saying that I believe either way. I am pursuing becoming a connections developer.

But I talk to clients, peers, and friends about connections and I do not get a warm fuzzy feeling about it, especially in the SMB market. Cost, implementation and user adoption are the main concerns.

Some quotes I have heard:
-Why would I want to bring it into my business, seems like an interruption,
-I do not have the skills in-house, I can do most of this on Domino.
-It just does not make sense.

So will IBM Connections be the next best thing, or the next in line to follow E-suite, components workplace, etc.

Bring it on.
