At last – the flood of community content I’ve blogged about for the last month or so is starting to appear.
First out of the gates is Novell OpenAudio – Podcasts for the broad Novell Community.
I’ll not spoil the suprise – but I recorded a series of four podcasts with Erin Quill about a month ago. Watch out for them to show up.
Guy Kawasaki has a great post tonight on Building a Community.
I’m not going to post it here – but take a read.
We’re right in the middle of getting the Novell CoolBlogs kicked off – this is great timely reading.
[Edit: this also got picked up by Robert Scoble; who added ‘go visit your community’. My comment back was this was great for well funded evangelists. What I also meant to add was that it also only works if you have clusters of community members in places you go.]
Well – we’re almost at mid-February – and getting closer to the release of the Novell Cool Blogs.
Hopefully internal testing soon – and live before the end of the month!
More updates on BrainShare 2006.
I am in Provo, UT all week – working with Mark Schouls – on our BrainShare session and demo:
Session Title: ZENworks Design, and the Lifecycle Management Framework Length: 2 Hours Level: Advanced Abstract: Over the past number of years Novell has presented the ZENworks Lifecycle Management diagram in many of the ZENworks related sessions. This session will focus squarly on how to design a rock solid ZENworks infrastructure and put lifecycle management into practice. Join this session to learn how to fully leverage your ZENworks architecture, take advantage of best practices, and see a live lifecycle management demonstration. This session is a combination of both theory and live demonstration. Speaker: Mark Schouls ZENworks Product ManagerNovell, Inc.Director of Product Management – Resource ManagementNovell, Inc.
Should be good fun. We’re working on the ‘minimal slides, maximum demo’ approach.
So far I am documenting how to build a successful ZENworks demo/workshop/lab – I will get that posted to the (soon to be launched) Novell Cool Blogs community.
The summary of the session describes the life of an employee – presented in a two hour session. From day zero (hire) to when the employee leaves for pastures new – the session and demo will describe how ZENworks, Novell Identity Manager and other solutions can control the lifecycle of the user and their hardware.
I’ll post more in the next week or so – but I’m saving the bulk of the information for the new Cool Blogs!
I’m working on a new blog/site – and I’m working on a new, crisp three column design.
I found a great article that describes how to do this – with the result of really clean HTML and CSS.
A nice article.
I use Google Analytics to track traffic to this blog. I commented on this earlier – and sorry for the almost 30k payload!
I noticed tonight a visitor from the far north of Norway – in Sandvika – this stood out as being the most northerly visitor I’ve had.
Welcome – and please leave a comment and introduce yourself!
