If you look across the agenda of Gluecon, you’ll actually begin to notice several horizontal themes that include (but aren’t limited to): APIs, NoSQL data models, connective protocols, frameworks/providers, and identity. The themes share a common thing: they (wait for…
I continue to work on Gluecon’s agenda (I’ll work on getting a new version up this week), and as I do, I always keep a glance reserved for “what the other guys are doing” (what’s going on at the RSA…
I was emailing with Brad this morning about some of the NoSQL stuff that we’re doing at Gluecon, and it made me think that a quick blog update might be useful. I currently have five sessions “on the board” around…

Let me throw some things against the wall and see if anything sticks. This week I confirmed Chris Messina (of OAuth, and now Activity Streams fame) and Jeff Lindsay (who gave an awesome talk on Webhooks last year) to speak…
Gluecon has a different “feel” to it. Having been around tech conferences for a decade now, you can tell when something just has that different “mojo” about it. Gluecon has it. I don’t know exactly what that means, but the…
