SharePoint 2010 is coming straight ahead and we only need to wait a little over two months before the next version of SharePoint officially comes out.

As posted on Microsoft site:

Watch Stephen Elop, President of the Microsoft Business Division, announce the launch of Office 2010 and SharePoint 2010 on May 12, 2010 at 11 a.m. EST.

The live keynote focuses on the next wave of productivity that delivers:

End user productivity across the PC, phone and browser
IT choice and flexibility
A platform for developers to build innovative solutions

Join the virtual launch event with Microsoft executives, product developers, partners and customers to:

Everyone wants to be in the cloud and SAP has continued improving its vertical market by acquiring the intellectual assets of Coghead, a company developing the next generation of web applications. The company claims they are the fastest and most efficient way to build and deliver applications in the cloud. Whatever those applications that make them the fastest cloud building tool would surely benefit SAP.

SAP is a large scale company and Coghead’s tools might help SAP get their modules to the cloud in chunks.

SAP co-CEO Leo Apotheker was beyond disgust blaming Accenture and IBM for giving SAP a bad name. He blames incompetent consultants sent to customers without having a clue on what their ERP is all about results in project full of delays, over-budgets and most importantly, a big bad name.

To resolve this issue, he says certification would be key. In his bad and low key statement: “I don’t give a s**t if it’s Accenture or IBM. I care about the customer. I find it shocking people are walking around talking to customers and have no experience on [SAP]. [Consultants] get hired of people and have no clue. It’s annoying but that’s a fact. Let’s start by certifying people,” said Apotheker. “If we believe [a project] takes 500 days and another partner says it’s 5,000 days I’ll do it for 500 and a fixed fee.”

This guy obviously doesn’t have a clue on what he is saying. Projects fail for so many reasons and a minimal list includes:

Open Text Enterprise Library Services is designed to enable organizations to transparently capture data from Microsoft applications, shared file systems, and ERP solutions such as SAP in a centrally managed repository. The content lifecycle can be controlled in accordance with a company’s unique internal business needs and external regulations.

A key solution emerging from the Microsoft + Open Text collaboration provides a centralized view and access to virtually all enterprise data. It provides the ideal business solution for nearly everything from supporting legal discovery processes and establishing litigation readiness to streamlining customer support by extending customer data stored in SAP into Microsoft Office Outlook 2007.

The one thing I hate about windows 7 is the lack of the quick launch bar. I tried other bars like rocketbar and such but it just wasn’t the same. Then at work one day I came up with this great idea. check it out.
