"xRM stands for eXtensible Relationship Management, and it amounts to a powerful platform for enabling agility. It means an escape from the buy-build dilemma that has long bogged down IT departments. It means you can satisfy business requirements at the speed the business expects." ~ James Downey

I just returned from a short vacation to see my son’s family. Sometimes I don’t really appreciate the fabulous weather we have in the Northwest. Today is was 60 degrees and traffic free as I rode my scooter in to work. :O) Everyone seems to be taking very short vacations as we get closer to the Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2011 launch date. There is so much we want to do in every release. I noticed that a lot of people who attended this year’s Worldwide Partners’ Conference who caught the talk about...

Another stellar post from Michael Kaplan’s Sorting it all Out blog regarding the size of the code solution: “For me the worst part is that some of the people who did the original work don't even see an issue here -- they feel quite good about all they have done and don't see the irony that happens when they are a bit piqued when those it was done for aren't "more appreciative." I have found myself apologizing for "those who don't know any better" quite a bit in recent times.” Read more… ...

Surfing the Web I came across Richard MacManus’ most excellent Internet update via ReadWriteWeb. It would be easy to say that the 'social' element is still the primary part of today's Web, since the popular products of this era enable you to say what's on your mind (Facebook), what's happening (Twitter), or where you are (Foursquare). All of these are mostly social activities. But more significantly, these and other products output data that will increasingly be used to build personalized se...

I was watching a recording of yesterday’s opening keynote from the Microsoft Worldwide Partner Conference, when Richard Riley (an ex-colleague from my PTS days here at Microsoft UK) made an impromptu show of support for the English football team, right in the middle of a demo being given by Stephen Elop, president of the Microsoft Business Division.
