While I no longer really have the bandwidth to help out technically, I thought I could be helpful in a marketing capacity.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;ve followed my other, personal podcast, <a href=\"http:\/\/drunkandretired.com\/podcast\/\">DrunkAndRetired.com<\/a>, you&#8217;ll know that Charles and I have talked about and through his use of Ajax for the past two years in almost every episode. Indeed, the Ajax-driven company Charles and his partners formed over those two years, <a href=\"http:\/\/thefrontside.net\/\">The FrontSide<\/a> is a member of OpenAjax as well, as is <a href=\"http:\/\/www.finetooth.com\/\">Finetooth<\/a> where another one of my friends, <a href=\"http:\/\/nocred.wordpress.com\/\">ScottD!<\/a>, works.<\/p>\n<p>Now, as Jon Ferraiolo and others were sure to work out, my intention in joining OpenAjax isn&#8217;t to &#8220;spy&#8221; and suck in info. From the beginning, my goal has been to help out and contribute instead of just lurk. Along those lines, I of course won&#8217;t be disclosing things that should be kept under-wraps. But that should go without saying ;&gt;<\/p>\n<p>So, thanks to Jon and the rest of the Steering Committee for approving the membership. I hope I can start being helpful ;&gt;<\/p>\n<p><b>Disclaimer:<\/b> IBM, Adobe, Eclipse, Sun, and Scalix &#8212; all members of OpenAjax &#8212; are clients.<\/p>\n<p><!-- technorati tags start --><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:right;font-size:10px\">Technorati Tags: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.technorati.com\/tag\/ajax\" rel=\"tag\">ajax<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.technorati.com\/tag\/openajax\" rel=\"tag\">openajax<\/a><\/p>\n<p><!-- technorati tags end --><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Joining OpenAjax.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[17,35],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-601","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-marketing","category-the-analyst-life"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/redmonk.com\/cote\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/601","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/redmonk.com\/cote\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/redmonk.com\/cote\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/redmonk.com\/cote\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/redmonk.com\/cote\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=601"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/redmonk.com\/cote\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/601\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/redmonk.com\/cote\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=601"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/redmonk.com\/cote\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=601"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/redmonk.com\/cote\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=601"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
