Is that old magic coming back?
After several moribund years, are user
groups returning to life? Is that old magic coming back? This evening I
attended the Las Vegas Lotus User Group meeting at the Las Vegas Hilton.
David Stephens from IBM gave an interesting look at Workplace Services
Express. But the real star of the show was Lance Spellman of Workflow
Studios. (Sorry David, but you
didn't stand a chance next to Lance and his support team).
In true Vegas style Lance dressed up as a "green man" (a play
on the Blue
Man currently showing in Vegas).
Not only is Lance a capable performer, but he did an excellent presentation
on using Ajax with Notes views, based on work done by Bob
Obringer. After the meeting
we stopped in at Quarks
Bar and Restaurant. Needless
to say Lance fitted right in with the Star Trek theme! Many thanks to Brian
Benz for organizing such an excellent user group meeting. My only regret
is leaving my camera in the hotel room, otherwise there would be some pictures
posted here.
