Microsoft’s Social Roadmap TOMORROW: Me, You, and Forrester

I’m pretty fired up for my webinar tomorrow on Microsoft’s direction for enterprise social technology.  It’s always fun to talk about a company I love, a set of products that I’ve built my career on, and the pace of change in this exciting arena. We’ll talk Microsoft, SharePoint, Yammer, history, strategy, roadmaps, and maybe even a little bit about cheese (I like a good aged cheddar).
Tomorrow is extra-special, though, because I get to co-present with Rob Koplowitz from Forrester Research.
I’ve always had the utmost respect for Forrester and the analysis they produce.  We relied on it heavily when I was an enterprise architect in corporate IT.  I even have a link to them in my own little way, having planned the information architecture for all of the analysis and research stored on Giga Information Group’s customer portal, “Gigaweb”, back in 2001 (Giga was later acquired by Forrester).
It’s that history that has me especially interested in working with Rob, whose work as a Microsoft watcher is a must-read.  I know he’s going to bring some quality, in-depth analysis to tomorrow’s call that goes a step beyond even what you’ve come to expect from us here at Perficient, and it’s an honor to be covering this topic from the same stage.  I hope that you’ll join the hundreds already attending– it’s not too late to sign up!
