Social Connections 8 ended some hours ago and first I want to thank the organization team ! It was a great job and an awesome conference you built here. The speaker gift was an absolute great idea!
It was the first time Social Connections headed to the United States and the location at IBM Boston was a well made decision. I visited the Boston area the first time and enjoyed all the days.
I already arrived on Sunday evening and had the pleasure to stay with Victor and his family until we headed to Boston. Thanks for the hospitality!
Opening session speaker Susan Livingston showed great new stuff around IBM Connections and IBM Verse. I think the most important is the planned function of synchronizing IBM Connections Files based on folders. Nested folder functionality is nice, i know that lots of people asking for this, but in my opinion i prefer to tag files and give me more possible keywords to find content.
Editor enhancements sound really good, i hope that all these functions will appear in all IBM Connections application, to get a continuous experience.
During the conference I had two sessions:
But the most important i met lovely people! Most of them i know online since years and we follow each other, discuss on several chats or share information through several blogs.
Oliver Heinz made perfect photos during the event and I’m sure they will be published on Flickr soon.
You can find some of my pictures in my Flickr Album .
