Mix login issues following the migration to My Oracle Support

In the process of migrating to the new My Oracle Support, a number of Mix members were asked to change their Oracle SSO usernames. The way Mix is set up, this means you can't log into Mix anymore.

If you're experiencing the same issue, please contact us and we'll make sure you get full access again. You can email us at oraclemix_ww at oracle dot com.

New Oracle Video Player is Live!

You may remember, a few months ago we asked your feedback on Oracle's new video player: Testing the new Oracle video player

We got a lot of valuable comments (on Twitter and here on this blog), and this morning we learned that the player has been released into the wild. Here's how it looks (or follow this link to see an example of how it's being used for campaigns):

A big thank you to everyone who took the time to test the player and leave a comment. Your input contributed greatly to the actual deployment of this player. The Digital Media team will be monitoring this post for additional feedback.

One thing we'd like to look into in 2010 is the ability to easily share Oracle videos on Mix. Let us know if you'd find that useful.

Expanding the Mix Profile

As with any social network, one of the central building blocks to Oracle Mix is user profiles -- information members can reveal about themselves and share with others.

Mix launched about two years ago, and since then a lot has happened on the social web.

We're looking at making our profile better and would like to ask your help. If you could improve the profile that Mix currently allows users to create about themselves, what would you add, change or even remove?

Here's what we currently capture...

Basic Information

  • First name
  • Last name
  • Title or role
  • Organization
  • Industry

Email and Phone

  • Email
  • Work phone
  • Mobile
  • Other

About Yourself

  • About yourself (short text)
  • Tags
  • Products

What about privacy options? Look and feel? Usability? Leave a comment if you have feedback or ideas for improvement. Thanks!
