No, I am not very talented at basketball (that's why I have a job at IBM!).
“Who am I?” I am responsible for global sales of IBM's messaging portfolio (Notes/Domino, Traveler,
Protector, Symphony)
– Previously, I have held sales, product management, development and support roles within IBM all
focused on the IBM Collaboration Solutions portfolio.
Working with Notes since R3 in 1995 and managed production Domino environment on NT Alpha
(really!?!).
Recently moved my family to Wisconsin from Massachusetts (yes it is colder).
“Why am I here?” As companies analyze their investments in messaging, they are realizing the
incredible value that Domino applications have to their business and processes. They are also
looking to shift that investment to new access modes and transform their end user computing
environments.

Adobe Flash can't run on Apple iOS …
… but Domino applications can!
• SharePoint is self service driven and therefore will need less development
resources than a new Notes/Domino environment
• While in reality
• What most consider to be simple Notes client applications often require
moderate to significant development effort that cannot be done with SharePoint
Designer, instead requiring Visual Studio and .Net development skills
• Complex applications with business logic and workflow are not suitable for
SharePoint and require .Net development and additional Microsoft products to
provide the same level of capability you get in one product (Notes/Domino)

future XPages Applications
• Mobile Controls were created as Custom Controls that can
be reused
