Gluecon 2011: Changing the Game

The other day as I was perusing the web (as I tend to do), I came across an interesting research paper from IDC Australia. Later in the year I’ll be presenting at the Cloud Computing Summit and some of what the author of the paper said sounded interesting. Being a collaborative sort of a guy, [...]
