SAP and SuccessFactors - SuccessConnect Conference Recap

How Tech People Can Make a Difference in the Lives of Under-Privileged Children

How Tech People Can Make a Difference in the Lives of Under-Privileged Children

By Mark Suster on August 1, 2011

I’d like to start by asking each of you to consider helping under-privileged children in America get a little bit more than they have today. Sure, you can give a small amount of money. Even $10. Please. It’s better than zero. You can combine that with supporting Fred & Joanne Wilson. (if you click no […]

$25K … No, $100K… No, One Million Dollars to Charity by Atlassian

$25K … No, $100K… No, One Million Dollars to Charity by Atlassian

By Zoli Erdos on March 4, 2011

Two years ago I reported on Atlassian’s initiative to to raise funds for the benefit of Room to Read, an organization that builds schools, libraries in rural communities in Nepal, Cambodia, Vietnam, Bangladesh, Laos, Zambia …etc. Giving away $1,200 worth of software licences for $5 in a 5-day drive, they first planned to raise $25K, […]

Atlassian Security Breach and Warning >>> Update: Apology and Disclosure

By Zoli Erdos on April 12, 2010

Well, well, hours after telling you not to change passwords, now I am telling you to change it… but this time with good reason. Minutes ago I’ve received a email from Atlassian: We are sending you this message because we experienced a security breach and suspect that your Atlassian customer account password details (only) may […]

Why cash is such a tough competitor; last cash markets

Why cash is such a tough competitor; last cash markets

By Derek Pilling on December 16, 2009

I’ve been spending a bunch of time recently thinking about last cash markets – markets that are still dominated by cash payment – and how electronic payment can penetrate these markets. Some of these markets (vending, taxis, paid parking) are huge (measured in billions). The lack of connectivity with the point of acceptance is a huge issue for […]

Causes Leaves MySpace for FaceBook

Causes Leaves MySpace for FaceBook

By Dan Morrill on November 6, 2009

Causes is a social networking donation platform that uses MySpace so that people can raise money for causes or issues that they believe in. Generally these kinds of activities help provide a community around issues like Breast Cancer, or stop smoking, or other issues that are part of our daily life. Causes is an excellent […]

Helping Atlassian $timulus Package Towards the Finish Line

Helping Atlassian $timulus Package Towards the Finish Line

By Zoli Erdos on April 24, 2009

Quick update on the Atlassian $timulus drive I previously reported about:  at 2pm on the last day of the promotion, they are at $93K – the $100K donation is realistic… but they may need a little push.  So I decided to put my money (well, a little) where my mouth is and have just purchased […]

Atlassian Stimulus Package Supports Charity. Two Days Left To Get Your (Almost) Free Confluence or Jira Licence.

Atlassian Stimulus Package Supports Charity. Two Days Left To Get Your (Almost) Free Confluence or Jira Licence.

By Zoli Erdos on April 23, 2009

This must be do-good-week.  Amongst all the talk about Ashton Kutcher’s challenge to CNN, how the follow-on Oprah show pushed Twitter to never-seen height, little attention was paid to the small fact that this initiative generated over $1 Million donations to Malaria No More.  Ashton started with his $100,000 check and was soon joined by […]

Ashton vs. CNN Twitter Match Yields $100,000 to Malaria No More Fund

Ashton vs. CNN Twitter Match Yields $100,000 to Malaria No More Fund

By Zoli Erdos on April 17, 2009

If you look at TechMeme, you might think that Ashton Kutcher’s Twitter victory (twitory?) over CNN is the day’s most important news, second only  to the Pirate Bay Founders prison sentence. It’s the usual blog-pile in: everyone feels they have be seen on TechMeme, but there’s not much they can add to the story.  Well, […]
