Six Years of Pie
You may not know it looking at my last two months of activity, or lack of it, but I’ve been writing, tweeting, and generally being loudly opinionated for the past six years. What started as just a way to vent my opinion over the direction of EMC/Documentum has become a platform for trying to push… Continue reading

Content, Security, and Standards
I am about to do what I stopped doing several years ago, start paying attention to James McGovern. Why? Because he is talking about several important issues that need to be dealt with in the industry. Years ago, James and I discussed Security standards around Identity Management, primarily SAML. While my focus on the time… Continue reading

Preaching to the Content Management Choir
Been doing some thinking and I’ve decided that my blog is worthless. I have been talking about things that I’ve covered before and things that practitioners in the industry pretty much take as a given. I occasionally manage to string things together in a new way, but very little is truly new at this point.… Continue reading

Take a Break from ECM
I have been trying to shift the topic away from “Enterprise” Content Management for a while now. I’ve said that it isn’t something you can buy because it is a strategy. I’ve said that you don’t need a single Content Management System (CMS) platform to implement your strategy. I even gave a presentation at AIIM… Continue reading

Thinking on the Future of Content Management

Engagement, Search, and Social were big, overlapping themes in the conference. I was at Gilbane in order present my view on the… Continue reading

An ECM Keynote for 2010
I’ve been talking about a lack of leadership and vision in the ECM industry. This is evident when you attend keynotes at various conferences. Most keynotes at industry conferences are focused on what has been happening and what is happening now. John Mancini’s keynote at the AIIM conference was as close as it gets these… Continue reading

"Cloud Content Management" Hype
Every now and then, I read a post/article/tweet that makes me slam my head against the nearest hard surface. The culprit this time was an article titled Cloud Content Management to Challenge ECM? I saw the title and was intrigued. I then read it and realized that the author had started falling for some market… Continue reading

Top Predictions For 2010
Everyone seems to be making a looking back post and/or a predictions post. I thought I would throw one against the wall and see if it stuck. Enjoy… Continue reading

JM Pascal Asks Pie the Hard ECM Questions
You may have missed it, but last week, Jean Marie Pascal posted an interview with me on his blog. It was a fun exercise, though it took a while as our schedules precluded quick email responses (my delay being the longer of the two). JM hung in there with me and the interview was finally… Continue reading
