How Hadoop Enables Big Data for Every Enterprise with Christophe Bisciglia

For the first time the CIOs/IT Executives meetup was held outside of the usual venue. This time our host was Cloudera.
Over 30 people from companies like Oracle, Microsoft, Facebook, NEC and many others showed up for the event.
Christopher’s presentation has generated lots of great discussions. I hope to have a video of this talk posted shortly.
If you are interested in Hadoop, you should read this great blog post on 5 Common Questions About Hadoop .

Face to Face with Loic Le Meur .

Loic did a great job to get me a bit more ‘up to speed’ on the newest twitter development and he sold me on seesmic. I really liked his ‘customer service’/professional guidelines which fused through his presentation and the following discussion - maybe a slice of European professionalism could help here in the US to make us all a bit more ‘relationship’ focused rather than just straight business focused ($$$). ”

This product will revolutionize consumer marketing. The P&G brand managment model will not work in the future. Business school courses will redone in the light of this. ”

Loic is a great speaker to the room and one-on-one. Educational, insightful, and bashful, his expertise in business and technology more than fulfilled what I wanted to get from the presentation. And I had fun! ”

The content was excellent, the environment was friendly, the meeting was well organized, and the food and wine was great ”

I very much enjoyed the session. I was amazed at the reach of Twitter and Seesmic. It was great to meet Loic. Thanks, Tatyana, for putting on such great events. ”

Feedback from the event with Loic Le Muer - the CEO of Seesmic says it all!

Here is a quick guide:

1. first of all you need to have a twitter id - go to http://twitter.com and register if you do not have one;

2. update your twitter status: “I have attended #baite event!”

3. go to http://search.twitter.com and type #baite

4. click on the twitter ids of folks who you’d like to connect with [from step 3] and click the follow button.

Happy networking!
