Just over a week before IBM Software Forum kicks off, we have some 50 people registered – to the Lotus session alone! The other five sessions are filling up quite fast, so it’s best to register now.
You already know what Lotus agenda will look like, but I’m still working on my presentation, the first one of the evening. I have a rough idea what I want to talk about, but in the spirit of collaboration and sharing I thought ‘hey, why not ask the community?‘.

So, this is me, asking you, the community, who will attend IBM Software Forum next Thu., what do you want to hear? what’s interests you? Just comment below, email me dvir at il.ibm.com or send @dvirreznik. I’ll do my best to incorporate your wishes in my presentation.

Flickr and facebook are just two of the places where you can see pictures from IBM’s Lotusphere 2009, the 16th annual Lotus and WebSphere Portal conference, held late January in Orlando, Florida. ChannelWeb has put up a slideshow capturing 17 scenes from this year’s event – 16 + 1 for next year.. 😉 Head over and check out their 17 scenes.

Above is my own favorite – the launch of LotusLive, Lotus full collaboration suite, offered in SaaS form.

Flying out to Europe tomorrow, quick business travel, until Friday.
I’ll be at Barcelona Tuesday afternoon through Thu morning, and in Venice Thu evening.
If anyone wants to meet up for some drinks and conversation, post a comment here, @dvirreznik or email dvirreznik at gmail.com. Since it’s a business travel, and I’m not alone, will do my best to accommodate the requests.
Adios 🙂

Lotusphere in Hebrew

Yesterday marked the 3rd day of IBM Lotusphere 2009, the annual customer conference on Lotus and WebSphere Portal solutions. Day 1 and 2 of the conference brought exciting new announcements, unvielved new solution and upgraded versions of Lotus products.

Unlike recent years where we had little exposure in Israel about Lotusphere, this year is very different. The reason – Or Yaacov, editor at The People – every day Or publishes one or two separate articles from Lotusphere, reaching a wide audience of IT professionals, and making the necessary noise in the local online media. Case in point – the title of today’s article (page 1) was ‘Exchange is not the solution to every problem and need’, a quote by Bob Picciano, Lotus GM.

So, for those looking for Hebrew articles on Lotusphere, here’s a list of articles I found. If you want to contribute, feel free to comment with the link and I’ll insert it to this post (along with the contributer of course.. ;-).

Efrat Kotler – IBM Lotusphere 2009 (TheMarker Cafe)
