bedeviled mojo slop

At the beginning of February, I received a Corporate Blogging Solution Forrester Wave evaluation form. blojsom was identified as "a vendor in the blogging solution market." So, I filled out the form and sent it back. blojsom was not selected for an in-depth evaluation. Our ride on that wave was short Oh well ... blojsom will still be included in the final report as "We didn't do an in-depth analysis of this software, but maybe you want to check it out anyway." And they're doing an add-on piece to talk about vendors not included in the formal evaluation.

I keep good tabs on what other vendors (commercial and open-source) are up to, so I decided to visit the good folks over at Traction Software. I'm guessing I'll read about them in the final Forrester evaluation. They're enterprise blog software and built using Java. It's not the features I'm at all worried about, but the price tag. The TeamPage-15 product offers 15 named users, 5 projects, and unlimited visitors for $5,000. As a comparison, MovableType's commercial pricing gets you 5 more users and unlimited weblogs for $600.

Buy into blojsom for $0 and you get unlimited users and unlimited weblogs (and the features).

Surf's up dudes and dudettes!

I woke up at 3 AM, parched. After gettin' my drink on, I stupidly channel surfed. There's always something you can watch at 3 AM, but rarely should. I just happened upon Cobra, the 1986 epic tale of a cop on the trail of a serial killer, starring Sylvester Stallone.

"This is where the law stops, and I start."

At 3 AM, you need lines like that!
