Posted by Theo Heselmans on January 17th, 2010

This is my 15th Lotusphere, but my first time on campus (at the Dolphin itself). After a bad start in Brussels (1 hour late departure due to a technical problem), I barely got my connection flight fr

"Meet the Bloggers" lounge at LS09 ?

Posted by Theo Heselmans on January 25th, 2008

This year, way more than ever before, I realized that Lotusphere is more than sessions, labs and the showcase. It's also about meeting people: speakers, lab-rats, exhibitors, peers. Now I'm not exact

Posted by Theo Heselmans on January 24th, 2008

Bruce Elgort and Chris Blatnick started of my day with funny examples of bad UIs. Luckily they did have good suggestions for improvement. Next up was Rocky: a charming show-guy, but his Formula/Lotus

Strange LS day today. I only went to 1 session, but a good one: Jack Ratcliff showed off the latest release of Ext.nd. Great framework. Still a long way to go, but it's very promising ! I did not int

Lotusphere 2008: Day 1

Posted by Theo Heselmans on January 22nd, 2008

The opening session promised a lot, delivered a lot, but was below expectation as some points. The guest speaker Bob Costas (who's he ?) was a let down. A sports presenter in the States, and thus comp

For me the Sunday evening 'Pool Party' (they've been calling it 'Welcome Reception' for a couple of years now, but I prefer the old casual name), is the real start of Lotusphere. A relax get-together,
