So, after the great success of the  SCNotty Awards last year, the SCN team decided to take it to the next level turning it into:

THE 2010 SCN CHOICE VIDEO AWARDS

I consider this is a must read for everybody interested in social networks...

Introduction

In today’s blog post I’ll quickly guide you through a few simple steps to setup a WordPress Blog for a domain of your choice. It’s no rocket-science and even the less technical people should be able to succeed in this – as I’ll try to demonstrate ;)

Back in the days

I clearly remember working in my very first DDP (distributed development project) back in 2004. It was a strategic, XXL, mission-critical new breed of application that laid the path for Composites at SAP. That was in the early days of SAP NetWeaver and as such we brought together a diverse bunch of people to make it happen. We had people from the US, Germany, India and Israel on our roster. It surely was an ambitious goal resulting in a very busy time, yet also very rewarding and interesting at the same time. Looking back now, I tend to think that it also started my thinking about cultural awareness….

It’s really interesting… on one side I get a lot of visibility such as being featured on SCN Career Landing page with my recent article about being a Software Architect and the feedback exceeded my wildest expectations, yet I still feel that we are far away from establishing the required feedback mentality required to really live-up to the social aspect of Web 2.0 in general….

I see that everyday. And w/o feedback blogging is just a monologue. I think that the reader – by taking the time to read – is also responsible to at least leave a short remark on the content. Nothing is more de-motivating to the author/blogger to see that hundredths of people have read something w/o leaving any indication whether or not they liked the content or not. So, I try to do that… if I took the time to read something  (or listen to a podcast or watch a video blog) I’ll at least leave a short comment/remark…

As such… here’s just a recap on these twop topics from my side:
