I found this great presentation on slideshare that talks about the "50 Mega Trends Affecting Every Business - Power statistics about tech" and thought I would share it.
The trends are grouped into five areas:
1. Mobile
2. Social
3. Cloud
4. Big Data
5. Apps
I think all of these are impacting anyone doing custom development today. XPages, SharePoint, Salesforce, Python, etc. And interesting reminder of how the greater tech trends effect each developer personally.
some in the Notes community believe that an 'appstore' for Notes apps would have little impact because most apps are not being used in public.
well what if you as a Notes user could install any 'approved' (security scan) Notes app on your client (or a public server and provide others access to it) wouldn't their be any benefit from this?
I see nowadays collegues storing info on dropbox, drive, you name it but you cannot take an app outside your company or an outside app inside your company.
To my believe that would still be a shift in mentality/possibility.
