Who is Your Real Customer: IT or the Business?
It used to be that if you were selling technology, you talked to IT. They were the ones who understood and controlled the role of technology, and they knew how to select a product that would support the business needs and still fit within the...How to Bake a White Paper from Scratch: Part One—the Recipe
Welcome to part one of the “bake a white paper from scratch” series. Here you sit, ready to start your new white paper. You might be a product manager who needs supporting collateral for sales, a marketing team member who’s been given the...TDWI Vendor Panel on the Future of BI – Part Two
Last week I wrote about the TDWI Executive Summit vendor panel discussion on the Future of BI. It was a great chance to hear what was on the mind of the business executive audience and hear what vendors have to say. There were no surprises in the...TDWI Vendor Panel on the Future of BI – part One
Last week I had to opportunity to attend the TDWI conference on BI in Las Vegas. While TDWI actually holds four conferences every year, this first one of the year is always the largest. This year, things seemed to be hopping with over 750...Visualize Social Media Data
If you know me, you know I’m a very visual person. I learn by watching, I enjoy pictures so much I do photography in my spare time, and, the data geek in me loves infographics. So, I started poking around looking for some cool infographics and...The New MDM-It’s Not What You Think!
As many of you know, I have a keen interest in the environment. (Don’t even get me started on the whole global warming (weirding) topic!) I’ve often written about corporate sustainability and am enjoying the work I’m doing with Honeywell on...Seeing through your customer’s eyes
Are Some BI Vendors too Quiet?
Yesterday, I went to a luncheon put on by Qlikview at the Seattle Yacht Club. I love these vendor luncheons, not because of the free lunch (though it was delicious), but to keep up on the BI industry and hear first hand from other BI users and...Is Twitter Dying?
I thought it was just me. My daily tweet count is down this year but I attributed that to my suddenly being insanely busy. Busy is good but I do miss the pint-sized social interaction, even if it’s limited to 140 characters. However, I’m...My 3 Wishes from the Marketing Genie
Remember watching cartoons about Aladdin and the magic lamp? I always hoped I’d find a magic lamp on a beach somewhere and I’d be granted three wishes. Didn’t you wish you could have three wishes too? Well today I’m setting aside my marketing...BI’s Place in Sustainability Reporting
As some of you already know, I’m quite interested in the linkage between corporate sustainability, also known as corporate social responsibility or CSR, and business intelligence. There’s a very logical place for BI teams, processes,...On the Internet, Everyone’s an Expert
They say content is king. But anyone with a good Internet connection can publish content. In fact, the Internet allows anyone to market themselves as an expert. This funny video mocks just how easy it is. Warning: there are a few cuss words...

“Hi Farnaz,I think the graph type shown in your article is a scatterplot, not a bubble plot. And scatterplots are not an invention of the 'Big Data' age. In fact, they were invented way back in 1833 by Sir John Frederick W. Herschel.It's tough to get an exact definition of Bubble Plot, but when I think of the differences between Bubble and Scatter, I think of aggregation levels. Bubble plots ...”
“David, I'm not so sure that the judge had ruled that the API's are copyrightable. You write, "where it was decided that Google's re-implementation of Java APIs in the Android OS did infringe Oracle's copyright." As of this morning on Friday, May 11th, Judge Alsup has not ruled on that issue.See Grocklaw at: Oracle's Denied Motion For JMOL on Fair Use, as ...”
