While I’m on the topic of sharing…The episode began as a nice family birthday celebration. Cupcakes for everyone. It ended in anger and sadness.
My youngest son, age 4 at the time, and true cupcake aficionado, had consumed his prize very quickly. His older brother, no less a connoisseur, was delicately enjoying his treat. You may know [...]
Do you remember Kirk Gibson’s walk off home run in game one of the 1988 World Series? The late Jack Buck’s famous radio call of the exciting moment was “I don’t believe what I just saw!”
Well, try finding the footage on YouTube. Apparently YouTube does not have the “expressed written consent” from MLB. If you want to view this [...]
We’ve had a theme of interoperability standards and protocols going here for a week now and I thought I’d continue the trend.
Did you ever wonder why you can go to your local big box retailer, buy one of any number of cable or DSL routers, plug it in at home and it just works? And, [...]

The second part of Yogi’s quote, “You can observe a lot just by watching,” is “We made too many wrong mistakes.” My guess is that the context for this quote was Yogi’s commentary on a game the Yankees lost because they weren’t paying attention to the game’s progress, causing them to take risks – or [...]
The headline quote has been attributed to baseball great Yogi Berra. Although Yogi has said that “I never said half the things I really said”, this one sounds like pure 100% Yogi.
The plain truth is that Berra is probably better known for his colorful quotes than he is for his baseball prowess. This is truly remarkable given his membership in the [...]
As I covered in yesterday’s post, the valuations for SaaS companies have routinely exceeded that of the traditional software vendors. I suggested that there are reasons for this, and they may be different from what you expect.
Phil Wainewright , a SaaS industry pioneer, recently wrote an intriguing post on this topic in ZDNet, “Want Cash? Buy [...]
The Celtics victory was the result of very talented individuals that played extremely well as a team. The Lakers loss, despite having the single most talented player, was in part due to the failures of some members of his supporting cast and in part because he couldn’t do everything himself. He had some incredible games, [...]
No, I’m not talking about the environment. I’m also not referring to the Celtics (See Matt Steinfort’s recent posts on the Boston Celtics Part I and Part II). Rather I’m drawing attention to the healthy revenue multiples of SaaS companies.
A presentation (see page 17) recently at the SIIA On-Demand conference in Amsterdam by the Corum Group [...]
