if all goes to plan, next week eweek will have a comparative review of our new, unannounced but shipping and in use by customers product, Instant TeamSessions against Mindalign's Parlano (no link for them ) This has me both excited and also a little nervous. Nervous for a few reasons:

1. It's a V1 product being compared to a V6 product.
2. Our V1 product was self funded without the millions that were invested in Parlano.
3. It's a new product, and god forbid it's panned in it's first review.

Excited for a good few reasons too

1. It's eWeek, great coverage, even if it turns out to be an average review, other companies spends thousands on PR companies to get a review in eWeek.
2. It shows the world how powerful Domino and Lotus Sametime when used together are
3. We worked with some great customers as design partners building the product, so pretty much every feature is there for a reason.
4. Most of the issues eWeek hit were Domino Admin type issues, and not directly related to our product.
5. Any issues or weaknesses they identify we know we can fix, so gives us good feedback
6. It's eWeek, oh I said that already

So I'll be looking for it with baited breath next week..
