Track:Location:Abstract:
QCon is a developer conference, but what is the impact of all that development? Joe Weinman, the author of Cloudonomics, argues that IT is the weapon of choice in today's global marketplace and increasingly digital world.
Sure, IT can be used for mundane applications such as conference room reservations and expense reporting, but it can also be a source of competitive differentiation and advantage.
Putting your hard work as a developer into applications that can be the seed of a new business or transform an existing one will help ensure that you get the recognition that you deserve.
