At that's a wrap for another year at #SEE09. Watch the site for more content over the next week.
@ 17:10 - Wednesday 28th October

Key things in S 4 - SMP safe, SHAI, Qt+Orbit+DirectUI. S 5 optimised to take full advantage of multi-core. #SEE09
@ 15:00 - Wednesday 28th October

Ian Hutton is giving an overview on Symbian roadmap releases. e.g. location triggering in 2. app take action on location. #SEE09
@ 14:38 - Wednesday 28th October

Interesting to hear that Web Engines cores are not SMP friendly curr. (but browser is more than just engine core, so still speed up). #SEE09
@ 14:25 - Wednesday 28th October

After overview of key system characteristics, now advice on thing not to d0 (e.g. unsafe assumptions on thread ordering, interupt disabling).
@ 14:17 - Wednesday 28th October

ST-Ericsson U8500 is SMP chipset. OS needs to be explicitly extended to supp. SMP efficiently. Single OS image manges multiple cores. #SEE09
@ 14:11 - Wednesday 28th October

After various meetings - quick peak into sess. on SMP from ST-Ericsson. Increasing parallelism in mobile CPU hw architecture is trend #SEE09
@ 14:07 - Wednesday 28th October

Augmented Reality panel conclusion at #SEE09 - AR will be ubiquitous in 10 years.
@ 13:01 - Wednesday 28th October

listening to the augmented reality panel. with Layar, Sequence Point Software, Moxia Group. lots of exciting ideas. less commercial reality?
@ 12:43 - Wednesday 28th October

and... exploit business model innovation to differentiate from existing market makers. Symbian's open source vision? #SEE09
@ 10:39 - Wednesday 28th October

What should Symbian do? Outsiders view. Refresh and extend your reach at low end. Use neutralization innovation at high end. #SEE09
@ 10:38 - Wednesday 28th October

Moore at #SEE09 'There's enormous inertia around dumb stuff -you need strong management will to minimize activities in this areas'.
@ 10:32 - Wednesday 28th October

Moore - Life cycle Marketing strategy - buying focus evolves as a percentage of overall mix. http://bit.ly/3er0TZ #SEE09
@ 10:29 - Wednesday 28th October

Pick one primary vector. Declare core. Drive R&D 'beyond reason' along this vector. Re-engineer context processes to support vector. #SEE09
@ 10:19 - Wednesday 28th October

Moore identified 12 different zones (4 each in product leadership, customer intimacy, operational excellence). (see pic on aas). #SEE09
@ 10:17 - Wednesday 28th October

Key to a winning inn. strategy? Declare / identify your core and rally around it. Id. your value discipline. Vector inn. on this. #SEE09
@ 10:12 - Wednesday 28th October

Waste - a lot comes from not taking innovation far enough - no separation. i.e. not getting outside the 'yellow' circle. #SEE09
@ 10:06 - Wednesday 28th October

Optimisation may not be invent, but is innovation. So 3 +ve return on inn = Diff. Neutral. and Optimiz. -ve return = failed & waste #SEE09
@ 10:03 - Wednesday 28th October

Neutralization (e.g.. IE 1 and 2 versus Netscape) is innovation too. About getting your competitors advantage off the table asap. #SEE09
@ 10:01 - Wednesday 28th October

And if you fail to separate then you have missed an opportunity to direct the market. #SEE09
@ 09:59 - Wednesday 28th October

Innovation strategy? Remember vector math (i.e. amplify a specific vector innovation). This will separate you from your competitive set.
@ 09:56 - Wednesday 28th October

Mobile is like PC World in the 80's? OS/2, Mac, Windows, Unix... developer which one? 10 years later there was only one platform. #SEE09

@ 10:54 - Tuesday 27th October

The empowered, deep diggers, hackers, knowledge brokers (a.k.a. - super influencers) are very important. Wiki behaviour shows this. #SEE09
@ 10:52 - Tuesday 27th October

Continuing to get an overview of Wikipedia. Now Wikia. Relevance for this audience is about building communities? Bit tenuous. #SEE09
