Do not forget for everyone not here (and here with Internet) to watch LotusphereLive.com for live blogging of the OGS.
Pictures can be found on Flickr under the Lotusphere2007 tag or on my Yahoo! site as usual as an album.
The day had far too much going on at once, but Lotus has made one thing clear, they are not out to play games anymore. Well ok, they had a game theme at the Welcome Reception as a weird twist however. Poker, air hockey, pool tables, twister and even video games. Sametime sessions are non-stop, as the podcast pointed out yesterday. They unveiled another company that has deployed Sametime in a larger scale than IBM themselves. That would be GE. The diagrams look the same as what you have seen at the conferences I have presented over the years.
Business Development Day was a success as always with partners from all over the globe gathering to talk shop and see what Lotus has in store for them in 2007.
This was also the day for Certified Lotus Instructors. I was only able to attend a short amount of time there but they are gearing for some major shifts in how curriculum is delivered and assembled by the instructors. More on that later as I have my own opinions.
The Welcome Reception was well packed as the weather was better than the recent past years and everyone had a blast. Even Wild Bill as we welcomed in his 40th birthday as you can see in the pics.
With the murmur of Notes 8, tons of hands-on sessions and even the 'un-Conference", the 2007 Opening General Session looks to fling everyone straight into Web 2.0 and the wave of Lotus future.
