David, two brands I think do a good job of sounding human on Twitter, FB and even in emails are @Loft and @Kimpton. I work in a business that demands attention to SEO so I understand the value of keywords, but I follow the...

If you're a WhatsApp user, does Facebook's acquisition of the company make you think twice about using the service? Let's hear your thoughts.
In reply to: Will you still use it?

I think Mark Thiele has nailed the issue here: PaaS is still niche. It reminds me of Linux in the mid-to-late-1990s: quite fragmented, and while it offers benefits, the learning/implementation curve combined with legitimate...

Everything Oregon bought from Oracle is COTS software... Siebel, OPA, PeopleSoft Financials, Oracle BI, Fusion Middleware, Oracle Database etc.

It was so successful that it attracted outside attention, and they got a grant - to buy a roomful of Apple computers! Then, we sort of got the boot. I can't say I blame them, why wouldn't they want their students to work...

Renat, I agree with your point: "If one thing that RedHat could do to make the world a better place - is to collaborate with Cloud Foundry community, to standardize around run-time and services, which are now incompatible." That's...
