Here are some of our latest presentations: Oracle expert tuning secrets Java's role in Web services The compelling ROI truths of business analytics DB2 UDB for iSeries: V5R2 enhancements to the iSeries' self-managing database The format for these webcasts is slightly different from those we've featured in the past. When you log on to view to them, you will be seeing a recorded broadcast. By recording the event beforehand, the guest speakers can give longer, more in-depth presentations. Now they can address a subject thoroughly and not have their talks cut short. Although this is a recorded event, you may still submit questions to the speaker anytime during your viewing of the webcast. You still click on the "Ask a Question" link in the bottom left corner of the screen. The only difference is that the speaker will answer the questions offline, and the responses will be posted on SearchDatabase.com as an article. We hope you like this new format. Feel free to send me your comments and opinions at [EMAIL PROTECTED]. We have over thirty webcasts planned for 2003, so be sure watch our webcast page for complete details.
