Some of you might have read at least one of my blogs on Ulitzer, categorising
the ins and outs of industry trends around the world across different
verticals.
I am fortunate enough to be able to commentate at such a reach owing to my
unique position as Marketing and Communication Director for a global leader
in executive communications.
My Position allows me to oversee departments from brand management to email
marketing, to dealing with senior Media partners such as Thomson Reuters and
WSJ. But the most fun and challenging part of my job is running the PR team.
Traditional PR still remains the most cost effective way to get my companies
messages out, working with editors across the world supplying them with
valuable content is a privilege.
However! One of my team (For the purpose of this piece we shall call him
‘Dan the Mexican’) has had recent success getting... (more)

"The economy might be cooling down, but the RIA market is definitely heating
up," declared Sun's CEO Jonathan Schwartz recently in his widely-read
industry blog. Schwartz was writing as Sun shipped its 100,000,000th JavaFX
runtime - a download rate that makes it the fastest growing RIA platform on
the market and demonstrating the fastest adoption of any product Sun has ever
shipped.
"What you can do with Flash is comparable to Silverlight, and again
comparable to JavaFX," Schwartz noted, adding:
"That said, must you use JavaFX or Flash or Silverlight to be a part of the
rich internet future? Well, no - Apple used Objective-C for the iPhone, after
all, completely discrediting the purist notion that if the app isn't written
with a web scripting language, it isn't fashion forward."
Schwartz underlined the happy fact that the 100,000,000 milestone was reached
just in tim... (more)
ParaScale Cloud Storage Journal Launched today on Ulitzer.
ParaScale cloud storage software clusters tens to hundreds of servers
together to act as one giant file repository with massive capacity and
parallel throughput for a variety of applications. Deployments can start at
several terabytes and it is easy to scale the cloud capacity and performance
by adding commodity hardware. Having shared access via a standard network and
protocols, a single administrator can easily manage hundreds of servers, with
the system automatically balancing out hot-spots and capacity utilization
across the various nodes. ParaScale software enables the enterprise or
service provider to build enormous storage pools on commodity hardware at an
affordable cost.

Wow, look at me, I'm famous. Oh wait, what have I done. Are people going to
follow me to the grocery store with cameras now?
Probably not, unless the world turns it's attention from Jon and Kate to
SAP Business One. But in our little world, this is pretty cool.
Orchestra and myself are featured on the SAP site at SYS-CON. Check us out on
the front page.
As an FYI, SYS-CON is part of Ulitzer, which is a huge news site. It runs on
Drupal and is reported to be one of the largest Drupal sites in existence,
expected to have millions of views per month with over 2 million nodes. We
don't just like it because it is Drupal though, Ulitzer is an awesome
business and tech site that has replaced some other sites for me.
Here are some links to this site and others like it:

I live 11 minutes away from Teterboro Airport in New Jersey. Friday evening I
took a Cessna Caravan for a short 45-minute flight to Martha's Vineyard. This
was my first trip to the island. I didn't do any research and had false
expectations based on my long-time love affair with the island of Cat Cay in
the Bahamas. I found out that Martha's Vineyard was huge. Upon landing on the
island, my pilot called a cab for me to take me to my hotel. According to the
cab driver the island's population was around 30,000 off-season and well over
100,000 during its peak summer season. These numbers change drastically from
driver to driver or whomever you ask, of course. As compared to a maximum
three to six neighbors any time I go home to Cat Cay, this was an instant
shock to me.
I had a relaxing two-day weekend in Martha's Vineyard. As long as I ... (more)
John Funnel on Ulitzer
Earlier this year one of my staff attended a SYS-CON event and returned to
the office a different person. Revitalised and motivated.
I asked her what happened at the event to warrant such a transformation? What
was her secret? Was it the New York Shopping experience? A business Romance
or was it Devine intervention?
She simply advised me to ‘check out Ulitzer. – Everyone who is anyone is
on it’.
She was not the first to introduce me to the innovation. Many of my peers had
gone through such noticeable changes, It was like a weight had been lifted
from their shoulders, that they now had a true portal to vent out their
innermost thoughts.
I was instantly intrigued by such recommendations. People, just like me, were
using Ulitzer everywhere. So what had I been fighting against all this time?
What was I avoiding?
Eventually I succumbed to the in... (more)
