Get out of Enterprise Google!
If you combine the modern Californian way of talking and a bit of old school religion you get Googles moto
Dont Be Evil
Here are things you need to know about them
#1
What we see of google on the out side is just the tip of the ice burg. For every idea that gets turned into product they make a 1000 that stay on the inside … this is the innovation methodology
#2
The google Microsoft story is the same as the Microsoft IBM story, to find out what happens to google next read a book.
#3
Google are forcing telcos to behave as a dumb pipe but the Telco’s are not going down without a fight, their response is IMS.
Both outcomes are anti consumer !
#4
Google are kicking arse in the enterprise space
Google Search appliances are flying off the shelves to the big companies,
For the Small companies the rate of signup to google apps is astonishing
In the education sector they will soon be standard ! especially in higher education. Google K2 is free for this sector and in UK market schools are switching from RM so fast that RM cannot keep up with demand to turn off their services.
The hand that rocks the cradle …
From my perspective …
Googles applications are great,
how they run their company is great
their attitude to embracing odd balls and weirdos is great.
I just cant help thinking that Its a pathetic that they choose to waste their dreams, talent and creativity on such a pathetic goal as taking down Microsoft
Google if you are listening, another way of saying Don’t be evil, is to say love everyone, and that includes the small state run telcos in little socialist european countries, the developers who want to make a living selling software and microsoft.
Sort it out … you can do so much better that.

MVC framework for PHP
I had a lot of trouble a while ago working with the MVC frameworks from other providers, they all seemed a bit too complex.
So … I made my own one.
Take a look I would love to know what you think?
MVC Framework for PHP
I am going t licence this under creative commons, so please feel free to play with this as much as you like.

Future software delivery model
Essentially, big businesses will rent a service, clever charging models will make the services attractive, for example
“If you rent Atos CRM we will reduce churn by …” or “We will give you our manufacturing service for free if we get a slice of the cost reductions …”
Services will be made of applications, but not as we know them, the apps will be clever mashups of different features from other applications and web services,
This whole layer will be very confusing with millions of interdependent services and features,
Ultimately a small number of massive massive cloud vendors will provide the hosting, there will be alternatives but they will be a bit flakey,
