Presenting WebWidgetry at an Oracle User Group

Tomorrow (or today depending on what time I actually get this posted tonight) we will be giving a presentation of our web platform vision at an Oracle User Group meeting. We were invited by a Senior Solution Architect within Oracle, with an aim at eliciting insight from their customers on what they would like to see in such a platform. This will be both an education in market research and public speaking. I'm looking forward to it.

We're planning to start with a slide show (of course), followed by Q&A and a tech demo (time permitting). Oracle is doing quite a bit of quality work in the Web/Enterprise 2.0 arena. But, like most other big application companies, the development requirements are quite intense when it comes time to create anything custom.

As mentioned in my previous post, we are all about making it easy for the people with the ideas (and needs) to be able to actually (for real now) implement their ideas. It will be interesting to see how customers of a suite as large and diverse as the Oracle stack will view some of these concepts, and moreover - to find out just what it is they want in order to fill the hole between having an idea of what they need to achieve their goals and actually getting that idea implemented.
