Connecting people Everywhere

By Ben Kepes on May 12, 2009

The first session at the Glue Conference was from Josh Edelman from the Facebook platform. Edelman waxed lyrical about the closeness he feels to everyone given the growing ubiquity of Facebook. It was more of a Facebook 101 talk than anything overly relevant to the event itself. Connecting People All the relationships that have been […]

A Conference is About Community

By Guest Authors on April 28, 2009

I’ve been watching with interest a great series of posts over on Pamela Dingle’s blog. It all began when Pamela tried to get a blogger pass for the RSA conference. What really caught my eye, though, was James McGovern’s response – specifically, “Achieving the goal of educating attendees is never the goal of those who […]

3 Free Tix to the Glue Conference

3 Free Tix to the Glue Conference

By Zoli Erdos on April 27, 2009

How timely of Rick  Burnes to post his Trade Show Trouble cartoon.  It expresses my feelings about large trade shows and conferences – am I suffering from acute conferencitis?   Yes, large shows are half-dead nowadays – but some conferences are worth attending even in bad times. The Glue Conference on May 12-13th in Denver may […]

Mohammed, the Mountain and Zoho Gadgets

By Zoli Erdos on April 16, 2009

If the mountain will not come to Mohammed, Mohammed will go to the mountain Legend says when the Founder of  Islam was asked to give proof of his teaching, he ordered Mount Safa to come to him. When the mountain did not comply, Mohammed went to to the mountain, raised his hands and thanked God […]

Building Facilitation Instead of Interruption

Building Facilitation Instead of Interruption

By Guest Authors on April 15, 2009

I ran across this blog post yesterday (”APIs are the next marketing platform”), and it’s really resonating with me. In it, Kipp Bodnar explains that while billboards, and print ads, and blogs (etc) may have been the “marketing platforms” of the past, the future of marketing platforms is the API (the application programming interface).  Quoting: […]

The Dangers of Early “Formalization”

The Dangers of Early “Formalization”

By Guest Authors on March 30, 2009

If you’ve been watching cloud computing at all, you’ve undoubtedly seen the whole brouhaha over the Open Cloud manifesto. I won’t recount it here, mostly because – frankly – I can’t tell what’s actually going on there anymore. So and so said one thing, while thanking so and so, who declined to comment on three […]

Things You Can Learn at the Glue Conference

Things You Can Learn at the Glue Conference

By Guest Authors on March 28, 2009

I’ve been working on an agenda update, and in doing so, I found myself re-discovering all of the things that I can learn about a Glue. Here’s a partial list: How Facebook is opening up their platform Why REST is the foundation for web oriented architecture Where identity is heading, and why it has to […]

Sticky Platforms

Sticky Platforms

By Guest Authors on March 25, 2009

This blog post about Leo Laporte’s strained relationship with Twitter has me thinking this morning. The post outlines the “dangers” of twitter (using the front men of Laporte and Dave Winer) as a “closed” or “centralized” system. Now, as a twitter user (and fan), I completely get the closed and centralized argument, but I think […]

A Quick Intro to GlueCon

A Quick Intro to GlueCon

By Guest Authors on March 23, 2009

When Zoli Erdos first asked me if I’d be willing to write some guest posts on CloudAve around the topic of Glue Conference, I was actually a bit hesitant. After all, Zoli’s done such a great job of explaining why he likes the conferences I run, and what Gluecon is about, that I wasn’t sure […]

Platform Level Integration – The Post-API solution?

Platform Level Integration – The Post-API solution?

By Ben Kepes on March 5, 2009

Late last year Yves Hiernaux guest posted here on CloudAve with a post that absolutely resonated for me. Given my lengthy background at the coalface of small business, it’s not surprising that I have a real affinity for solutions that facilitate the integration of discrete applications and, in doing so, make life a whole lot […]

Data Standards for Web Applications

Data Standards for Web Applications

By Guest Authors on March 3, 2009

While many despise WMA, DOC, MP3 and other proprietary formats the discussions about data formats used by web applications have been surprisingly silent. It is true that this is mainly because a lot of web applications offer XML export or offer an API for exporting data to other services. But as data formats in the […]
