Copyrights and the contradiction that is to be human

I have worked in the fringes of the computer security field for some time now and so I can't really say that what I'm about to relate to you is a big surprise to me, but at the same time I think it does a good job of highlighting the dichotomy that is the human being. It tells you why enforcement is required, policy alone is not enough. Most people will behave differently if they know their actions are being monitored but some people will try to take action regardless.

Content Server 10 -- my first thoughts

I'll start out by saying I've not yet used a Content Server 10-based application or even logged onto a demo server and so much of this is just speculation based upon information I learned during

Dynamic Threads in CS10, Close but no Cigar

For many, many years I heard the cry of various Livelink administrators and system architects screaming for the ability to have a larger pool of threads to ask of a single Livelink (Content Server) process/instance. So I was very much looking forward to learning about the new so-called Dynamic thread capability in Content Server 10. Unfortunately, so far anyway, the name is a misnomer ... at least if the description I just heard on TechConnect is correct.

Conspiracies, science, media, and truths: can ECM help?

Yes it can!

One of the big stories that caught my eye this week was that the 1998 report linking autism and the MMR vaccine wasn't just false but appears to have been deliberate fraud. I have so many thoughts in my head about this, I just have to share them individually:

Using the Cloud within ECM? ... be careful!

I've never been much of a "get on the bandwagon" type of guy, typically the more somebody tries to sell a thought/idea/concept to me the more skeptical I become as I truly believe that really good ideas don't need the hard sell. Cloud computing / storage is one of the latest pushes of these, the big boys in computing (MS, Google, Amazon, etc) push the cloud very strongly and I certainly understand why that is from their perspective ... the Application Service Provider model has always been lucrative but the cloud raises the bar considerably for some.
