The new Semantic Web-like Oracle Events application is out there. Call it a mashup of Google Maps, Siderean Seamark, and Oracle Secure Enterprise Search.I, for one, think this is the coolest app ever to appear with an Oracle.com header on it - by far.The "technology creep" intentionally initiated by OTN Semantic Web Beta continues, all according to plan. (Insert evil laughter here.)

The consolidation of Oracle's two formal evangelist programs, Oracle ACE and Oracle Fusion Middleware Regional Director (into a pumped-up, two-tiered Oracle ACE Program) was noted with astonishing speed in the blogosphere, notably by ACEs Tim Hall and Eddie Awad.This is good news for a number of reasons, but most important, it allows anyone with a track record of Oracle technical community involvement/outreach to get formal support from Oracle for their activities.
