Social, Mobile & Brand Awareness…All in Less Than 45 Days

DNN, Stay True to Your Roots
I recently attended DNN’s first user conference in November 2011 in sunny Orlando, Florida. For those who aren’t familiar with DNN, it stands for DotNetNuke, which is an open-source content management system built on a .net framework. If you are like a lot of non-technical folks that I talk to on a daily basis you’re scratching your head right now and thinking what the heck does that mean? Let me break it down for you.

Desktop and Browser Wars – Google Chrome O/S
The two titans of the desktop and browser world, Microsoft and Google, have escalated their epic battle by introducing products into each other’s strongest-held territories.
