Well, if you had been in Sydney, Melbourne, Canberra or Adelaide last week – then YES – you would’ve had a free breakfast !
The SDM K2+IW (Information Worker) breakfast seminar / roadshow is now complete, was a busy week. These were business-oriented sessions, with my developer brain switched to stand-by, was difficult not to break into jargon & .NET lingo !
Thanks to the K2 folk for attending, and supporting our cause.

Was some great discussion and Q&A following the sessions.
Even had a question asking if K2 had been used to control robotics !?! I don’t see why not, as long as there’s an API to interact with the robot machinery. Would be a fun dev. project !
Another attendee mentioned having a paper-chase around their organisation, that landed on 12 people’s desk ! A prime candidate for workflow – and K2[blackpearl].
If you’re interested in hearing more, or a more depth insight into some of these topics, pls. feel free to leave a comment.
Have been attending the K2 Global Learning 101 course this week – will update more with some of my findings, & so forth.
