I think we could do a better job blogging at Oracle, there are a number of tech and apps bloggers but it is still a minuscule percentage of the employees.

It is no coincidence that I started my blog right after Oracle Open World. There are many things that in development we think are obvious, but that is because we live and breathe these designs for months and years. We do a great job of getting some really good product out there yet often forget what is the easy part - telling everyone how great our product is and how we intended it to be used. What i hope to get from my blog an mix is ideas from the user community on what we should do more of/less of and the real issues people have when using our Apps.
