Think-ing From Far Away

As many of you know, next week is IBM Think in San Francisco.  Unfortunately I won’t be able to be there and neither will my fellow Lifetime Champions Julian Robichaux and Theo Heselmans so we wanted to do our own version of “Think” for those of us who are missing out.  Starting next week we plan to record a daily 30 minute audio podcast discussing the news coming out of Think and some of the presentations and sponsors that are there.

IBM have published a list of sessions that will be available for streaming here https://www.ibm.com/events/think/watch/ so we will be watching remotely and we have several guests who will be at Think joining us each day.  This is our attempt to bring some Think and collaboration news to those (including us) who can’t make it.  Here are our planned topics for each day

Monday: The Collaboration Community
Tuesday: Keynote
Tuesday or Wednesday: Showfloor review
Wednesday: Futures and Innovations
Thursday: Domino News
Friday: Wrap up

The podcasts will be published on our blogs each day, We hope you enjoy them.

 

Perfect10 - Building A Test Lab

In the 10th edition of my Perfect 10 webcast I explain how and why to build a test lab so you can get to deploying those products you downloaded today. You did download them right?

I was asked recently to share the slides for all these Perfect10 presentations and to be honest I hadn’t thought of it but it’s a good idea so I’ll be sharing them all this week.

Next up: Let’s Talk Domino v10 & Admin

Adminlicious - My Favourite TCO Features in Domino 10

This is my presentation from Icon UK on Thursday 13th September.  There are lots of TCO features coming in Domino 10 that I’ve been working with and look forward to putting into production.  In this presentation I cover things like cluster symmetry, pre send mail checking, deletion logs and the newrelic statistics reporting.

Say it with me….

28 days until the Domino 10 release.

My Collabsphere 2018 video goes live: “What is Node.js?”

By Tim Davis – Director of Development

Last month, I presented a session at Collabsphere 2018 called ‘What is Node.js?’

In it I gave an introduction to Node and covered how to set it up and create a simple web server. I also talked about how Domino 10 will integrate with it, and about some cool new features of JavaScript you may not be aware of.

Luckily my session was recorded and the video is now available on the YouTube Collabsphere channel.

The slides from this session are also available on slideshare.

If you are interested in learning about Node.js (especially with the npm integration coming up in Domino 10) then its worth a look.

Many thanks to Richard Moy and the Collabsphere team for putting on such a great show!
