News hook: using a current event to market your product. In tech marketing it doesn't work - just creates noise.
Something brewing at @github: no blogs for 14 days - someone quit or is on vacation? - mf.tt/FL8t3
Worst Opening Sentence: "Innovation is extremely fast-paced in this day and age of tech" - mf.tt/NhXAg

Starting to see the impact of @arungupta at Couchbase? mf.tt/66xS8

One thing is evident, it's a "food fight" between @MongoDB and @Couchbase at this point. Which is the better option?
This JIRA -> JIRA Core transition. Confusing? Yes. It's clear what they are trying to do. what isn't clear is if it will work. #nondevs
Openstack Liberty announcement vs. Public cloud vendors emphasizing features - which do you think wins? mf.tt/nCHiT
