Daryl – don’t forget that before BPM I ran marketing here for the digital media emerging business opportunity and the media and entertainment industry. So I got all the Comic Con blow by blows from my facebook friends who were there

Thanks, Sandy. I had a big, big client who loves Lotus notes and was worried I would trash it in front of management. hen I started talking about “connections”, colaboration, and social interactiion with Notes, they just started grinning ear to ear. Cool stuff.

Hi Darryl – great post and love the comments on BlueWorks !! I personally have never really thought of myself as a stodgy legacy guy – more of a gadgetier.

Look forward to chatting again soon !

Darryl; Once again you nailed it! Of course, SOA is so very alive!

And have you seen the new version …. of Lotus Notes! It has widgets for LinkedIn, Twitter, etc.

Stay cool!

Hey Daryl, this is an excellent top ten list, so funny. I like #2 the best, I think IBM will continue to be dominant in the future and gobble up companies like Pacman. You can cross-post this to our site http://www.toptentopten.com/ and link back to your site. We are trying to create a directory for top ten lists where people can find your site. The coolest feature is you can let other people vote on the rankings of your list.

LOL!

Letterman might want to use your Top Ten List!

It is better than some of his lists…

Having visited Hursley Park several times myself, you do have to admit the place is “Wicked Kool”… Not sure who really “Owns” the place.

Just another chronic, whining complainer from Oklahoma that wants to be Kool and leave a comment on your site!

I love it Daryl, great post…

IBM is absolutely no cooler than it was 40 years ago. Neither am I (I just turned 41)

But after the topsy turvy Internet bubble and crazy economy, it’s very hip to be very square. Boring is in.

IBM makes no effort to be cool. That’s why they are cool.

Oh, the pot belly on men is back too..
