But I’m jumping back into the scene and taking a side step away from tweeting as @JRSim_UIX and giving you some useful tips blogging my experiences with Oracle FMW and the WebCenter software stack and lettling you see a few secret projects.

That’s right; Fishbowl Solutions are coming to EMEA!

37a15ceIt’s an exciting time and a lot of changes on the horizon. Firstly Blue Studios:: Oracle focused Sections -  will be moving and migrating across into Fishbowls:: Cfour Oracle Enterprise 2.o blog. I’ll be joining the team of bloggers keeping you up to date with my latest brainwaves and integrated solutions, mostly of what you’ll soon be seeing on a new area of Fishbowls site – “The Labs”; where we’ll be giving you sample code, whitepapers and guides as well as releasing some of our cut-down products for you to have a play with.

With this partnership – I will be bringing over 9 years of experience with Design & Development – including managing and maintaining Oracle E2.0 ECM and WebCenter for clients within Europe and the Middle East.

There’s lots interesting activity at FB one of which is providing mobile solutions – creating both native and cross compatible application for IOS and Andoid and I’ll be jumping into the action drawing up new UI controls and hopefully improving on the out of the box UX.

Development has already begun on the first Oracle Partner WebCenter portal solutions. As we all know Fishbowl heavily use Oracle products internally and use it to maintain and manage their site and digital assests. With the latest release of WebCenter PS3 it looks as if it is time to expand it’s current investment and show off its true potential – allowing it’s partners to login and collaborate and bring true E2.0 to reality; if you manage to make it to the Fishbowl roadshow you’ll see it in action :)

Head over the Fishbowl Solutions to read the official press release.

The future

Watch this space..

I’ve been reserved with my posts in 2011; mostly because of a busy schedule with life and work.
Next month I get married :) and I’m sure a lot of my readers understand how busy planning can be..

But… there are also more positive changes happening behind the scenes with my career and the future of Blue Studios – unfortunately these have held me back from releasing some major proof of concepts, components and ideas. But don’t worry, the future is looking bright and I expect all this to be coming your way in the following couple of months…

I often follow the apps lab team and every so often check up on what their devs blog on or chuck into git.  Today I just thought I’d check to see what Rich Manalang was upto.. It’s been a couple months now since my last visit because he never really posted that many posts… .. Woh! was I wrong.. :)

So if you’r a designer, javascript, mobile type guy kinda like me then hook him up to your reader.

Its a new day and the ever popular jQuery release v1.5!

Check the updates fixes here.

Interesting rewrite of the ajax module and I do like the idea of Deferred Object – I now have to rethink the way I currently work with inner callbacks. Hmm is there much benefit..
