Today’s keynote, by MySQL CEO Marten Mickos, was titled The Participatory & Disruptive Spirit of the Dolphin<\/strong>. Here are some random notes I took.<\/p>\n

Tired                Wired<\/strong><\/pre>\n
Packaged Apps        On-Demand<\/pre>\n
Closed Source        Open Source (jboss, php, mysql, apache, linux)<\/pre>\n
Complex Hardware     Commodity Hardware<\/pre>\n
Most innovative companies, are clearly wired, and are enjoying the technology market shifts. Small players can now swim around the big players.<\/p>\n
“Open Source disrupts inefficient models and produces new wealth.”<\/p>\n
Star Wreck – Finnish dry humor, production by amateurs, and exteremely popular. Catch it on YouTube?<\/p>\n
“We hope you’ll travel to MECA” – MySQL Enterprise Connection Alliance. Probably not the most sensible comment, but it does humor in it ;-)<\/p>\n
Serve the underserved – offer flying to those that would otherwise take a bus. Offer a database to people that would rather use a filesystem.<\/p>\n
A smarter way to produce the goods and distribute them, this causes disruption.<\/p>\n
