Do you really believe staff are more productive if they can play around
with skins and colours all day?
And I still have to see the office where people use smart phones and
tabloids instead of PCs.
Fine, maybe the top brass wants to see KPIs and fancy graphics on their
toys to show off on the golf course?
For that we have tools like Cognos 10 etc., but for the people who do
the real work these toys would just be a distraction.
Give me a big Monitor screen any time!
I have been using some of the so called state-of-the art technologies
for some time now and they didn't make my work any easier.
To the contrary.
The screens may look prettier than SB+ 5.2 GUI and they are browser
based, but developing with Sharepoint for instance is boring and very
time consuming.
Add business logic and the whole thing becomes a nightmare.
Presentation isn't everything.

Hi Ed:
You are focusing to much on the technical side. Users really don't care how
we programmers do what we do.
Presentation is everything. The ability to change colors or skins on your
web site. For example, just look at the Firefox 4 or the new Dell Laptop
with interchangeable tops. Another example is Android OS for phones went
from market share zero to over 30% today. Android OS did that by form and
function just as Apple iPhone has in the last 4 years.
We have had a portal for 8 years now. We used open source scriptaculous,
but it was not attractive. We use a different tool that caught our users
eyes. See our home page at www.u2logic.com.
