| | Excerpt from: Into the MyST | | | December 13, 2007 | | Let's catch up by stepping back to the first post - it was about unintended consequences. | Why no posting activity you ask? Well, lots of excuses - no good reasons. But we have been pretty busy building out MyST Blogsite and there's a lots of content over there worth a read if you're interested in the finest and most advanced corporate publishing solution for the conversational web. ;-) As I look back at the reason we started this channel - it reopens my mind - I have lots to say in spite of the publishing gap. In the first post (22 Feb 2003) I said... "... this architecture is well positioned to solve problems that are far beyond today's intended objectives." I guess I was right - we're using the MyST Platform for managing MyST Enterprise RSS services and as the foundation for MyST Blogsite®; neither of these ideas were in the forefront of our minds, and somewhat surprising -- the platform architecture has hardly changed since then. What has changed is the agility the platform has provided. It has enabled rapid development of tools such as Topic Cloud - take a peek at the cloud on this site. As we look back, the content in this channel was created long before Blogsite was even an idea on an envelope. Yet here it is - transformed right into this Blogsite that serves as the primary website for our company. Almost zero effort has been exteneded to keep this blog channel live and producing visitors. It's a part of MyST's scaffolding that extends all the way to the foundation, but it continues to produce great visibility for us in spite of near complete neglect. I also mentioned disruption in that post but we certainly haven't changed the world. We have changed our lives though - more on that next week. | | |
