Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve received many comments about the demonstration we did at the HR Technology Conference (the ‘HCM Battle’). Since they’re pretty much universally positive, I can’t resist the opportunity to share a few of them. We definitely struck a nerve with our notion of ‘spaces’ — and the Outlook and Facebook integration were a big hit. And with Microsoft investing in Facebook at (essentially) a valuation of $15 billion, surely there must be some kind of beneficial halo effect!
I hope you find the feedback interesting. I’d love to hear your comments.
1. You gotta love this guy — I think he used the word ‘brilliant’! (http://zapaterismo.typepad.com/my_weblog/2007/10/the-divergent-1.html)
2. Ed Frauenheim offered a nice overview, with specific mention of our work with Facebook integration (http://www.workforce.com/section/00/article/25/18/55.html).
3. Another blogger commenting on our Facebook integration (http://softwareblog.botw.org/human-resources/hr-software-and-social-networking/)
4. A great gossip column from Bill Kutik about the conference
