VOSibilities

Here are some of the people who “posed with our prisoners” today at Oracle OpenWorld. People were laughing and enjoying our street theater — and “getting” the message of ease of use and freedom from lock-in that ActiveVOS offers. We had a blast today…and we hope you did, too.

Tomorrow (Tuesday, October 13) at 4pm, we are hosting a meetup to pick three iPod nano winners from among all of the posted photos and videos. Lots of people were creating images today…remember to post them anywhere that’s convenient and then join us tomorrow for the meetup. It’s at the Thirsty Bear, 661 Howard Street. That’s just a block away from Moscone…down the street from the W Hotel.

Today, we are at Oracle OpenWorld in San Francisco. We’ve dressed up actors as prisoners of SOA Suite 11g. We’ve handing out cards that contain the 11 things to think about when considering SOA Suite 11g and an invite to our social media meetup Tuesday, October 13. Here are the details.

We’re having fun. In the video below, you can see that people are enjoying the humor and taking the time to read our “11 things to consider before using Oracle SOA Suite 11g.” They’re also posing with our prisoners and shooting video and photos. So, we expect a great turnout tomorrow at the meetup. Remember: you can win an iPod nano for the best photo/video of the prisoners at the meeting. The judges are the audience. So, join us for some drinks, snacks and fun.

Check out  some of the video and photos below.

First, we “cowboy up” at a Starbucks, then hit the streets before dawn to get a head start on liberation from SOA Suite 11g. Reactions are positive…from the woman who stands on the street corner reading the 11 things to consider about SOA Suite to the person complimenting our costumes:

After release from 11g prison, it’s all smiles on the streets of San Francisco:
