Startup school 2008!

Ahhh, we here at cnxs are busy learning some new exciting technology, so keep you heads up for some fresh new content soon....

Hey there. I've closed college (finally) and for the last project we had to built an extensive conclusion work and an article on this work.

The full length work is in portuguese, so it's a bit inaccessible to most readers, but I've tried to write the article in english, since it was permitted and it increased the potential reader base.

So here it is. It's about using the Getting Real philosophy as a way to be competitive in an ever increasingly competitive and integrated world. Hope you guys enjoy it, and any grammar mistakes, please point them out, english is not my first language, and mistakes do happen :P

Well another big player buying other big player. Big acquisitions in the last couple of months! For around $13 billion ($25 per share). HP said that they could double their service revenue. Well seems that market doesn't believe too much in HP since their shares are down on 6% now...

What a day huh? Oracle bought BEA for around U$ 8.5 billions. I don't like this kind of acquisition, cause means less competitors in some market that they used to compete.

Huh? Sun acquired MySQL as announced today. I was very surprised by this notice, I guess soon we gonna have a much better DBMS. How does it sound for you?
