In my talk, I threw an unscripted joke about Oracle being old…then I remembered what shirt I was wearing. Oh well. I know of a company still using Solaris. And the Sun spirit lives on in hundreds of thousands.

I’ll be wearing my Sun Microsystems shirt for today’s talk. LH probably wouldn’t exist without Java, open standards, and all the OS/hardware innovation from Sun. #current24

Working on tractors and lawn mowers has a way to make me both happy and rage. 3 hours to take apart, 2.5 to get back together, 87k curses uttered. All for one belt.

Traditionally, retail was all in-person. Then came three big punches that turned the world of buying things upside down and highlighted the fact that omnichannel retailing isn’t optional. In this blog post, we dig deeper into the rise of omnichannel. bit.ly/3KmZU2l
