Alvey :

Crowd Fusion for everyone

91 days ago

Last fall at TechCrunch 50 (video here) professional Internet celebrity judge Robert Scoble asked me why I didn't spend time talking about all of the big successful content management systems I'd built in the past. I answered that I only had 6 minutes on stage, so I focused on the product. But at NY Tech Meetup in March I decided to address his question again and tell one of the stories of Crowd Fusion -- how I had built all these other great CMSes that no one in the audience had ever used. There was never going to be an O'Reilly book on the Capgemini CMS or a Blogsmith for Dummies, but maybe we'll see books like that for Crowd Fusion and people everywhere will have the chance to try our platform out.

You can watch a video from the event to hear some of the details of my experiences partnering up with Jeffrey Zeldman and Jason Calacanis, or just check out the two cool book covers I made for the presentation.

Hah!

Phineas and Ferb is the best cartoon series ever, but King Julian is the best cartoon character ever.

If we did get to do an O'Reilly book for Crowd Fusion and couldn't get the licensing to use the character, I'd want to at least get a real ring-tailed lemur -- with a big leafy crown.

King Julian from Madagascar?
