Open World - Latin Style

Greetings from Open World Brazil
Boa tarde de Sao Paulo.

I'm just finishing up my trip to Brazil and I'm sitting in the Airport ready to head back to the states. I have to say this year was quite a great event. I was a little uncertain as to the attendance numbers given the current financial climate, but it seemed bigger than 2007.

It was great to reconnect with my PTS (and ex-PTS) brethren. I even spotted the famous blogger (and ex-PTS buddy) Juan Ruiz, from the JDev team.

We had some great opportunities to show of new Oracle Technologies and discuss solutions around Legacy Modernization.

We had some successful sessions talking about Oracle Modernization and the Application Modernization Initiative

It was tough to meet everyone, and all of the customers, but I would say it was a good event. Well worth the 12hr journey from Raleigh, NC.

Anyway, time to board.

Até logo!

Hey Jason, it was really good to synch up with you as well during the event, it is always great to have your participation in Latin America. Those are really cool pictures.
