Just what Box.net wanted…

Posted on November 23, 2009. Filed under: Collaboration, Video | Tags: , , |

Just what they wanted… a bug-eyed, nervous testimonial.  Even though I do it quite frequently these days, I am always a bit nervous when put in front of a camera.  I tend to open my eyes wider than normal, and lose track of my points.  Practice makes perfect, as does giving yourself 20 minutes to rehearse and get your bullet points on paper.  Regardless, I am big fans of the folks over at box.net and what they’ve done with their business over the last 5 years.  We’ve partnered with them at my current gig (Fuze Meeting).  I first met Aaron Levie back in 2005 while I was at WebEx when they didn’t really have a lot of traction – well – look at them now… Going up against sharepoint with a simpler model!  I love it.

We’ve been using Box.net internally after decommissioning our sharepoint installation – which had NOTHING to do with the partnership and everything to do with simplicity!

      Remember when I promised loosely related posts? Well, here you go. Unless you are living under a rock, you probably noticed that the Oscars were on Sunday night. Being the blogophiliac that I am, I used my keen wit and common sense to scour the blogs for predictions. The big winner of the night (Besides The [...]

      We realize if you’ve made it to the Fuze Meeting site and its associated blog, then you’re already probably a certified genius who knows how to conduct him/herself in an online community. But lest we are accused of under communicating, we thought we’d make it official. Do Be chatty. We love opinions and inter-commenter conversations. We [...]

    • 4 New Uses For Your Laser Pointer (Now That You’re Web Conferencing) March 3, 2010
      I know. It was hard for me to let go also. In the whole of history, has anyone ever declared “Behold, GROWTH” with such a sense of accomplishment as when pointing at a line graph with an invisible red beam? Of course not. Are on-screen pointers nearly as fun? No. And we can admit when we’ve [...]

      To steal a passage from my Programming 10 Class, nerdy T-shirts of the 1990’s, and Bill Gates’ first Tweet: Hello, World! Fuze Meeting has just signed on a Social Media/PR/BloggyBlog/Community Management enthusiast (me) to take the reins on keeping our users and prospects (you) up-to-date and in-the-know about all things web conference-ish and other (loosely […]
