With Focus on the Community from Finish to Start

Tuesday Night

I’m looking at the tweets and thinking how nimble minds, imaginations, and “WII hands” helped make the Demo Jam warm-up by Craig, Ed and Dan…. magic.  Can’t really describe what it was like to hear the veritable and palpable geek-gasp of admiration when the magic duo (with a video embedded in the 3D image of Craig to make it a trio) manage to bring the audience to its feet with their elegant feat and roars of admiration from the crowd.

These guys were blowing minds with their creativity.  Pretty well-kept secret, too.

I know it’s not nice to say, but you really had to be there, and if you weren’t…well, you really did miss it.  Here’s a tiny consolation prize in the form of a slideshow in today’s TechEd pictures.

Check out Gali pinning Bhanu, Rich receiving certificate, lots of Demo Jam pics.

BPX Knowledge Table Buzz

In the able hands of Frauke Hoffmann and Audrey Weinland, the BPX knowledge table plays host to dozens of community conversations.

Want to know about SAP Enterprise Modeling Applications by IDS Scheer, workflow for suits, MDM for business consultants, change management, corporate performance management, new data mapping tools for business professionals (sneak preview on Wed.) Look no further than this lively table.  Goodies for suities was a surprise bonus.

Mobile Widgets with guru Louenas Hamdi.  Most patient software widget installer ever.  Massaged my old, slow blackberry for an hour until it sang the Community Sessions theme song.

How cool is that!
