GE Invests $105 Million In Pivotal

Occasionally, we get very clear signs that significant change is in the air.� When large sums of money unexpectedly change hands, people take notice that something interesting and perhaps unexpected is happening.

This morning, GE announced that they were investing $105m to take a significant stake in Pivotal, the new initiative jointly owned by EMC and VMware.

On one hand, we have GE: perhaps one of the best examples of an exceedingly well-run global corporation with a market cap of over $220B.� On the other hand, we have Pivotal: a nascent analytics platform company formed from EMC and VMware assets, with an exceptional leader at the helm: Paul Maritz.

Goodbye Upcoming.org {sniffle}

So, Yahoo's finally decided to close Upcoming.org, the events community I started nearly ten years ago. And, in Yahoo's typical fuck-off-and-die style, they're doing it with 11 days notice, no on-site announcement, and no way to back up past events.

Pivotal: Now you can get it both ways

"Our goal is that you will be able to get it both ways," said Maritz. "You can buy the software or you'll be able to take it as a service from a variety of providers by the end of this year."
