Lotus UK Power of Business Applications

Darren Adams has already mentioned this day on 16th June, but I thought I'd just make sure that people know about it as well.

Basically what Darren has organised is a day all about Lotus application development in the real world. So I'm going to speak a little about the history of IdeaJam, where we are and hot we got here. Then in the afternoon I'm back on my favourite hobby horse; XPages development. This time the title for the session is "Rejuvenating Domino Web Applications with XPages".

There looks like there's some really great content during the day, so if you have anything to do with Domino applications (that's development, implementation, management, or anything else really, this isn't an overly techie day) then it will probably be worth you coming along.

And best of all, it's free. You just need to register here.

UKLUG Progressing

During the week we published the first round of approved sessions on the UKLUG site. So far we have some really great looking sessions that are going to be given by stalwarts of the Lotus Community such as Rob Novak, Paul Mooney, Bill Buchan, Warren Elsmore, Steve McDonagh, Gab Davis, John Head, Ben Poole and Stuart McIntyre (amongst others), but the real beauty of events like UKLUG is that it gives an opportunity for some new speakers to enter the fray as well.

There is still a little bit of time to get your session in if you want to get into the Lotus speaking world. As a new entrant myself, I can't recommend it highly enough, it's a lot of work and scary as hell, but ultimately good fun and good for your CV as well.

If you don't fancy speaking and hadn't decided whether to attend UKLUG, hopefully the sessions we've published so far will help you make the decision.
