Time to Drop LastPass? The Most Irresponsible, Idiotic Post Ever!
<rant> I have not blogged for a while, but I feel my blood is boiling at such an irresponsible call by MakeUseOf, a site I used to respect: It’s Time to Drop LastPass: How to Migrate to a Better Password Manager As a long-time LastPass user, my first reaction was panic: yet another breach? But […]

Space Invasion @ Dreamforce
Last year I made a bit of fun of Oracle, picking on the symbolism in their closed, walled conference setup vs. the open festival-like environment at Salesforce.com’s competing event. Here’s a little pictorial reminder: Dreamforce did not even feel like a conference, rather a Festival – Woodstock, Mardi Gras, SXSW – your pick. Fun. Contrast that to Oracle’s […]

Welcoming the Youngest and Cutest Enterprise Irregular
We have not adopted a new EI for a long while… but don’t bother applying, we already have a newcomer fill the vacancy. She does not blog, and I am not sure about her analytical skills yet. In fact she does not even read or write. She is just young and pretty. See, how shallow […]
Enterprise May Be Sexy, But….
Snapshot from today’s TechMeme. Crazy gamers (OMGPOP) dropped by even crazier gamers (Zynga) as they fall out of favor by even crazier gamers (the whole World). So what. On the very same day Salesforce.com acquires Exact Target in their largest ever transaction valued at $2.5B and it does not even make TechMeme. Heck, even ActiveState’s acquisition […]
Blueprint to Re-Cycle the much Hyped MagiK Kvadrant
Fellow Enterprise Irregular and HfS Research Founder Phil Fersht introduced their new Blueprint with an appropriate title: Step aside Magic Quadrant, hello Blueprint. I think such a milestone warrants a historical overview of Gartner’s Magic Quadrant, Hype Cycle, Magic Cycle, Magic Hype, Hyped Magik… or any other variation you prefer. And since it’s just a few […]
