CUE 09 Descends On San Diego
April 27, 2009 · 10 Comments
When Lawson CUE was held in San Diego this past April, Lawson invited some software industry bloggers to attend the annual event. I’ll let you read their reviews:
- Frank Scavo’s Enterprise Spectator
- Michael Krigsman’s IT Project Failures
- Ray Wang’s Software Insider’s Point of View
- Vinnie Mirchandani’s Deal Architect
Unlike the LawsonGuru Blog, which targets you—the actual Lawson customer, each of these bloggers targets the larger enterprise software marketplace. But, hey, it’s Lawson’s conference, so they have to right to invite whomever they want.
Alas, I stayed home.

Newspapers, as we’ve known them, are on their deathbed. And it’s a sad reversal of fortune. Gone are the glory days of The Washington Post’s Woodward and Bernstein.
