SIC 2007 Conference Overview
Software Industry Conference
By Sharon Housley
This overview will not be as detailed
as in the past but I did want to touch on a few conference
highlights. The conference had a high percentage of
new attendees.
FastSpring
FastSpring
is a new ecommerce service run by Dan Engel (developer
of Piccassa, and Morpheus), Ken White (former RegSoft
owner and current owner of NextUp) and Ryan Dewell (former
coder at RegNow).
Digital River
Digital River changed their name to Global Direct.
They also launched a software marketing resource for
software developers and marketers at DR
Developer Resource. The site contains lots of "how
to" articles and some great statistical information.
Tucows
Tucows
launched a new website, that uses Ajax and is more
interactive. No longer do customers have to select a
file mirror, the website does it for them.
Globell
HC Topp Systems was renamed Globell
and they launched a new website.
Bertelsmann
Bertelsmann has just broken into software ecommerce
and could potentially challenge Digital River with their
size.
W3i
W3i is a content network
with a huge subscriber base, they are looking for software.
They suggest action based on the users past behavior,
similar to Amazon.
TrialPay
TrialPay is obviously
thriving, after their introduction last year they already
have a competitor on the block, LiftMedia
uses a similar model.
47 Hats
Bob Walsh has launched 47
Hats.
SIC will be in Boston in 2008 July
17-19th mark your calenders!
