I received an email from Annie Hill, Bay Of Plenty ICT Cluster Coordinator at Priority One this morning.
It says that the Cluster is putting together a list of URLs for bloggers to facilitate communication within the BOP ICT sector, as well as connecting Cluster members with ICT bloggers outside the region.
It's the way to go Annie!
Blogging is a great way to interact with the online ICT community. That should of course read, any online community.
Blogs I read tend to have an IT bias and a Microsoft one at that. We are Microsoft Partners, but learn little from their standard PR releases. Too corporate and too grey. Microsoft appears though to have encouraged their own employees to blog, and these blogs are far more open about where Microsoft technology sits and importantly, how they view the wider IT community and current developments within the converged space.
Blogs I look at in this regard include:
Steve Clayton - CTO Microsoft UK Partner Group
Claire O'Halloran - Microsoft UK Partner Group
Frank Arrigo - Microsoft GM, all Technical Communities in Australia
Rod Drury - NZ Software Entrepreneur
Over the next few weeks, I looking forward to adding some BOP ICT Cluster blogs to my list.
