"Mean, Lean and Green": Mashups and More at CSC Leading Edge Forum

Yesterday I presented for the second year in a row at the CSC Leading Edge Forum.
This year's theme was "Mean, Lean and Green" and I presented JackBe's vision of a leaner IT future: dynamic data integration, syndicated mashups, mashup-based Enterprise Widgets, and improving the adoption and reusability of SOA assets via Mashup-based solutions.

In addition to my presentation, I had the chance to hear and meet some really interesting folks, including Chris Clark, technical lead on the National Environmental Information eXchange Network, and Tomas Soderstrom, IT Chief Technology Officer for the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL). Both are overseeing projects that sound like potential candidates for Enterprise Mashups and Mashup-based Widgets!

I genuinely enjoyed meeting them and the many other speakers and attendees at this informative conference. Many thanks to CSC for giving me the opportunity to be in such esteemed company.
