Why the web needs a universal decision support system and not just another decision engine

Matt R. — Wed, 11 May 2011 19:50:00 GMT

The best social sites and search engines alone won't tell you how valuable your business is, but a series of calculations against a few key answers you provide, compared to other businesses, will. That's why a decision support system (DSS) is needed.

Wouldn't it be great to go to Google and query "How much is my business worth?" and then have an input form with a few questions and then an answer on the spot? Today the top search result is for 'information' that goes into valuing a company and a link to purchasing a book for further guidance.

A DSS could also help you in times of a crisis to narrow down your exact situation and provide you with an answer specific to you. I often find that I need to read four or five web pages to pinpoint an answer. It would be great to have a workflow that arrives at this sooner and more accurately.

Existing crowd-sourced decision engines also take time to get an answer because they require knowledgable people who ar

Negotiate You Way to a Pay Increase

William W. — Tue, 01 Mar 2011 03:25:00 GMT

Do you want to improve your salary prospects? Well, before you change your current job, it is worth to do some research for how you can improve your earning potential and negotiate you way to a higher salary.

Control Your Interview Process

William W. — Tue, 15 Feb 2011 01:10:00 GMT

The feeling of helplessness that overcomes candidates applying for a position can become a factor in the interview process. That sense of vulnerability can cause an interviewee to lack the self confidence that is sought by most employers. That feeling of helplessness and vulnerability can be overcome by implementing the following strategies to take control of the interview.

Distributing and promoting Open Source projects

Matt R. — Mon, 31 Jan 2011 14:00:00 GMT

The Open Source files for ConcourseConnect (OSI approved AGPL license) are being hosted by Google Code and Sourceforge.net. The reason we went with Google Code is initially for reliability and then later because the Open Source code base is synchronized directly to Google Code and you can review the changelog in near real-time. The reason we went with Sourceforge is because Sourceforge has a large inventory of Open Source software and for that reason it makes sense. Here's how I feel about the choices today...

First Time Buyers - More Down Payment Help

Katherine W. — Sat, 29 Jan 2011 02:05:00 GMT

One of the most common deterrents to first-time home buyers is the lack of a down payment. However, the home loan industry has practically re-created itself in the last ten years, making it easier than ever to obtain a mortgage, and new mortgage programs are always cropping up.

Career Management Strategies

William W. — Fri, 28 Jan 2011 04:05:00 GMT

Uncover Your True Calling. Recognizing your personal qualifications and communication skills is the key to start a successful career path. You need to identify your special qualifications, as well as your personal strengths and weaknesses. A career advisor will help you perform a full assessment, and the evaluation will become an essential part of your portfolio. The analysis will provide you with an objective overview of your personal potential before your job hunting.

Video Communication for New Age

William W. — Fri, 28 Jan 2011 03:45:00 GMT

There will be no text in this article in 5 to 10 years from now on. Instead of reading, we will be watching a short three minute video. A few years ago most of the mega IT companies did not even exist, and now you would be ready hard to find someone who has never heard of Microsoft, Intel, Google or Yahoo. Internet conference and video communication become daily routines.

IntelliJ IDEA 10 [u]

Matt R. — Tue, 18 Jan 2011 15:15:00 GMT

My favorite IDE reached version 10 in December and I finally got around to downloading a demo of the commercial version. I'm still using a previous commercial version for nearly all of my development projects but I have been using IDEA 10 Community Edition for some of my javascript projects so at least I'll be familiar with some of the UI improvements. What I'm looking forward to in the latest commercial edition:

Having a current IDE for technologies and frameworks that I work with
Improvements with source code repositories
"100% faster code indexing, and an overall performance increase"
"New code completion behavior with automatic invocation while typing"

Can workshops help build awareness, interest and demand for social business collaboration tools?

Joe A. — Fri, 22 Oct 2010 19:30:00 GMT

While most everyone is aware of the tremendous growth and adoption of social media tools in various platforms, it is surprising that most don't think about how that can improve performance on key metrics and internal processes within their organizations...

How to invite a friend?

fanfan z. — Thu, 15 Jul 2010 03:05:00 GMT

I have installed the concursive2.0.1 on my desktop, it is very amazing, I like it. I can upload the picture, start group in my environment. But hit a issue, I can't invite a friend, from the tomcat console, there is something went wrong about the javaMail, and I don't know how to handle it. Could you please help to point out what is the root reason? Thanks you so much.

Goto the "About us"->"add members" -> "Send Invites" --> "Prepare Invitation Message" --> I got the return message:

Send Invites

Invitations have been sent to the selected members. You can view the status of the invitations in the Participants tab.

But from the tomcat console, I got below message, it doesn't works.

The Special Qualities Of Lv Handbags

I, sometimes, wonder about the craziness that most women have developed towards Lv Handbags and I do not have any secondary view about these bags that they have been ruling the industry for long. Women have always been fond of handbags as these bags have become important elements of fashion.

Social Technology and Business Process Reengineering 2.0

Joe A. — Thu, 25 Mar 2010 19:50:00 GMT

The Internet provided new ways to display information and streamline public information access and distribution. While not called "business process redesign" per se, the potential to radically improve internal, external and collaborative and interactive use of information to drive out costs, improve quality, enhance stakeholder relationships and reinvent cumbersome, yet critical processes should be a huge area of interest among forward-thinking leaders sooner than later.

Skipfish - Google's automated web security scanner - A use case

Matt R. — Wed, 24 Mar 2010 01:15:00 GMT

Google recently released Skipfish, a command-line tool for testing the security of web applications. I decided to download the source code, compile it, and then test it on one of our beta instances of ConcourseConnect. ConcourseConnect was previously tested by a 3rd party security company so I was eager to find out how things would go this time around.

Skipfish is easy to compile and use on Mac OSX. You must have Apple's Xcode installed first. Here's the steps I took to run Skipfish:

Download the skipfish source from the Skipfish Google Code Project
Download the required library libidn, I grabbed the latest version 1.18

Can a corporate web site be a social networking community?

Matt R. — Tue, 09 Mar 2010 14:05:00 GMT

This is a question that we have internally discussed for years. We decided that the answer was yes, a corporate web site can be a social networking community, and we have been running a web site and community, all-in-one, for about 8 years now. Powering concursive.com is ConcourseConnect 2.0 -- it's a collaboration application, but with the flexibility of a light-weight content management system.

IntelliJ IDEA Community Edition 9 Preview (quick insights)

Matt R. — Mon, 19 Oct 2009 14:40:00 GMT

JetBrains recently released a preview version of IntelliJ as Open Source. The marketing page declares IntelliJ as "The Most Intelligent Java IDE — Now Free and Open Source."

I've been a paying customer of IntelliJ IDEA for several years, and with this news I thought, how great! I can continue to use the Enterprise edition on my main computer, and on my second computer use the Community edition for minor edits. You can't run two copies of IntelliJ Enterprise at the same time on the same network, so I have avoided using IntelliJ on two computers and use NetBeans instead.

The Community Edition looks very familiar to those using the Enterprise edition, with a few graphical color changes and some features removed. Most of the removed features are for hardcore refactoring, testing, and developing with integrated web servers... features a useful editor wouldn&ap

Mac OSX Snow Leopard and Java 6 Experience

Matt R. — Sun, 30 Aug 2009 23:10:00 GMT

After upgrading to the latest Mac OS, things are definitely running well -- the speed is noticeable. IntelliJ and NetBeans are working just fine for me and the latest ConcourseSuite CRM alpha and ConcourseConnect are both running fine too. The default Java is now Java 6.

Perhaps the best "new" feature is that Spaces finally works with IntelliJ and NetBeans! Previously, when

NetBeans 6.7 Experience

Matt R. — Mon, 27 Jul 2009 14:00:00 GMT

I've been an advocate of IntelliJ for quite some time. In fact, over the years I've converted a few around here and still today I think it works well. The main gripe I have recently is compatibility with Mac OSX -- daily crashes, and with each crash comes a lengthy cache rebuild. On an Apple Java Developers discussion forum another user with the same exception indicated that JetBrains (the owner of IntelliJ) pointed to Apple's latest Java release as the culprit for a windowing exception and that they wouldn't/couldn't do anything about it. I don't expect an update anytime soon so I had to act quickly.

With a newly released NetBeans IDE, and a problematic IntelliJ 8 and 9 beta on
