Bloggers corner at Sapphire
SAP has invited several bloggers to its US Sapphire event in May. It is a sign of the changing influence game - and SAP is clearly blazing a trail when it comes to blogging and social networking.
But they drove a hard bargain:
- made me sign a 20 year NDA
- made me promise to vote for Shai as People magazine's 2006 Sexiest Man Alive
- made me promise to taunt Oracle for letting Jboss slip away
- made me disclose which was the Pot and which was the Kettle. Apparently they had set up a prediction market around that.
NOT.
All SAP asks for is "... if you write something that is critical of SAP that you simply allow someone from SAP to respond (in your blog of course)".
I would prefer we take the debate to People magazine!
Seriously, though, it is both bold and generous of SAP to invite us. We promise to behave. And blog.
You forgot about the Shai for President :-)
See you in Orlando...

Oops, I forgot the small issue of the Constitution ... we'll need a workaround ... that's why we're Consultants :-)
