Thoughts worth sharing

The presentation reflected on Abhinav's previous life working in Enterprise IT and his observations of what didn't work and an experiment that he was part of to try things a different way.

Trineo is proud to announce that Abhinav has been selected to present a keynote at the prestigious Defrag conference held outside Denver, Colorado. The conference is focused on tools that accelerate the "a ha" moment.

At Dreamforce 2012 Salesforce demonstrated the Salesforce Touch platform. Salesforce Touch enables to easily create and deploy mobile apps across multiple devices on Force.com.

Trineo has been a listed Heroku Partner, delivering high end apps on the Heroku platform for a few years now. We are very proud to see our innovative work being mentioned in the news release.

On Thursday the 5th of July, Trineo is hosting this month's Christchurch on Rails gathering, which happens to be a hack night. The night will be informal, and hopefully good fun for all involved.

Last week five members of Team Trineo crossed the Tasman Sea and arrived in Sydney for Cloudforce: the region's biggest cloud computing event with around 5000 people in attendance.

What makes a good team? Communication. How best should one communicate with your team? I had the fortune of hearing well-known blogger Michael Lopp speak on the art of team.

The gang at Atlassian did really well with their Summit. I anticipate that their Summit audience numbers will only grow over time. It was great to meet their customers, and those in their commercial ecosystem.

The Trineo bespoke solutions team attended Railscamp NZ 2 last weekend, and had an amazing time. The event was a real success, and was appreciated by many. A satisfying feeling as an organiser.

The combination of using Google Apps for email and Salesforce.com for CRM is all too common. We’ve been using both products for years but the integration of the two products over that time has been sadly lacking.

As a Force.com developer I have always wanted a chance to become proficient at using these tools myself (VIM in particular), and before long I found myself looking into ways this might be possible.

Salesforce.com today released Do.com, a simple project management tool, into public beta. Do.com is the result of an acquisition that Salesforce.com made a few months back when they acquired Manymoon.com.
