A bit of history this time. When i was Googling about IBM and MS i found some interesting articles/deals. One of the article is about the famous deal between IBM and MS and how MS became a multi billion dollar company from nothing. Its definitely worth reading.
After completion, you will contemplate whether Bill Gates really a Genius or anyone can become so!!!
So the moral of the story is :
Sometimes, its not what you know that matters, its who you know really matters? Taken from one of the Singapore taxi drivers business card, who also happened to be a Letter writer for accidents etc.

LAUG 7th Meeting
The 7th LAUG meeting at IBM City centre today went pretty good. A Team (Mitsuru and Mike) from TeamStudio came all the way from Japan to give a presentation on some of their flagship products. Though i have seen some of their presentations through WebEx demos before (courtesy Benjamin Green - TeamStudio) today i managed to see it live. Almost all the tools are quite cool and some of them are a must in the Notes/Domino environment (CIAO - Check In And Out) is one among them.
Nowadays, we hear a lot of people saying their Notes environment is out of control. The reason is simple. Because Notes is a Rapid Development environment we tend to keep building applications and one fine day hundreds of applications sitting in the app server with the least amount of document possible. I have seen in many places, hundreds of design elements with many duplicate copies of the application/design elements with no version control at all. So, then it becomes tedious for anybody to maintain and people start saying Lotus Notes in not good.
But the fact is we didn't put any control in the first place. Had we put proper controls, source code controls etc etc. we would not have messed up this much. That's where TeamStudio products can help. For all other platforms there are tools available for team of developers to manage the versions of the application and if any problem a way to roll back to previous code and so on. Unfortunately they are not available for Notes environment. Products/Tools like Team Studio CIAO, Analyzer and Delta will help in bridging the gap and take the Notes environment a long way.

Made up my mind
Today, i finally made up my mind to use this blog much more than i have been doing so far. I am willing to cover all that has happened in the past with the present in my posts. But how am i going to differentiate this two? At the moment i am planning to include the month and date(if possible) in the title of the entry.
The reason am doing this is to remember all the good things i have had in the past and hope to continue the same in the future and more. I always think that my memory is so good that i can tell many of the things happened during my childhood, even my mom don't remember.
Ok, so there we go... lets see how it goes.
