Meta-data
Hello again, welcome to #16. Today we have 25 subscribers, so we're +3. THANKS! (Keep telling your friends!) I'd love to hear what you like, dislike, your feedback, etc.: memo@cote.io.
I'll be at speaking at a couple conferences you should come to this Fall:
One, at 451's HCTS conference, Oct. 6th to 8th. where I'll be talking about developer relations and marketing (see below). I've got a $200 off discount code for that, MC200, that you can use if you want to sign up for the conference.
Adoption of SAP HANA is weird - people seem to admit it makes things run faster, but figuring out why it should be used is an issue. Smells like a marketing and pricing problem.
I've gotten unhelpfully addicted to Twitter Analytics. To be fair to the diction of "addicted," it's pretty damn good. A few things:
1.) If you didn't know this existed (I didn't!) go check it out.
2.) I was thinking of posting my raw data export to see how I'm "doing." I have no idea if if these numbers are good, bad, or what.
As a sample, here's the record for my tweet on my developer relations report:
0.8% people actually clicked, I think. That anything?
As a side-note: we have a copydesk at 451 which always seems weird for a "blogger" like me. But, they caught a good error/omission in my original draft so, bully for them!
