Dennis: Thanks for the publicity. As Tim said in an email, it's "time to step up". A few clarifications, Connect isn't product, nor will it be anytime soon, and we're not building a closed network. My goal is to allow for fine-grained network segmentation, like we (you too) have been asking Facebook to do. Jake Anshu: I sent you an invite this morning, looking forward to your thoughts.

The technology has matured and folk like Craig are doing interesting things. I initially described Twitter as a 'f'ing waste of time' but once I discovered its utility in helping me reach people who are important to me <strong>in real time</strong>, the penny dropped very quickly. Today - it's part of my daily comms arsenal. On OpenWorld - unfortunately, Oracle doesn't seem so interested in reaching out to folks like me. ;( Hi Jake: I just posted something on it: at ZDNet where I explain my current position, based on recent experience.

I appreciate your attention to our humble blog. Rich is deploying features so fast that I'm having trouble keeping up with what's new. I hope he'll take a breath and share his experience with our technical audience. Anne: Sweet serendipity. I hope our Connect can inspire or at least prove the point in your Connect! Common Craft's videos are great teaching tools. They just published the social bookmarking one. Dennis: Your viewpoint is always welcome, and I can't really dispute it, this time. We are really trying to reach out to customers, and turning the ship has been tough. I think this year's Open World will show a lot of progress in that area. I have to say, I'm not sold on Twitter or Second Life as useful tools. Maybe you, Jeff and Craig et al. can educate me on these as business tools. Thanks, Jake Thanks to both for commenting.

My personal view is that while Oracle does a great job hooking DBAs to DBAs it doesn't do a great job connecting to customers - people who use apps. In the SAP SDN/BPX networks, they're starting to discover people who can be articulate in that regard. It makes a HUGE difference to how apps development reflects business need. And that's from someone coming form the business/buy-side of the house. My sense is that if Oracle can make progress cracking that particular nut, then it will win friends. Good luck.

With the exclamation point and a long subtitle of course, since one-word book titles with long subtitles are in fashion right now. But connection is the thing, isn't it? iPhone or no. (In my case, no.) Didn't know that Common Craft had a video about social networking; I had seen the one about RSS and thought it was great. Will be interesting to see what you guys do with your Connect while I write mine. :) Very cool! I’m writing a book, and here’s what it’s called:
