Incidentally, IBM is kinda becoming Heroku: http://bluemix.net :)



Here comes the corporate damage control!

Bluemix is too little too late, and appears to be an advertisement for all the open-source 'cool' tech that IBM did not invent.

Let's not even get into the fraud that was the share-buyback (second only to Apple I believe). Now that's ended the tricky question of where that elusive revenue will come from looms its ugly head.

I'm pretty fucking scared about what a company in decline with an arsenal of patents like IBM's is going to do to hit its EPS targets in the next few years.


BlueMix is based on CloudFoundry (an open source project), so it is basically a rebranded CloudFoundry with some additional features.
