I'm at PASS this week and I forgot my laptop cord so I'm blogging from my Treo 700w. Anyway, the big news here, if you haven't heard, is the Red-gate acquisition of SQLServerCentral.com. The story is that Brian Knight and Andy Warren will be breaking off to do their own thing and Steve Jones will be sticking around for a year. Now, I haven't gotten a chance to talk to Red-gate yet to see what they plan to do wit I’m at PASS this week and I forgot my laptop cord so I’m blogging from my Treo 700w. Anyway, the big news here, if you haven’t heard, is the Red-gate acquisition of SQLServerCentral.com. The story is that Brian Knight and Andy Warren will be breaking off to do their own thing and Steve Jones will be sticking around for a year. Now, I haven’t gotten a chance to talk to Red-gate yet to see what they plan to do with the site, but I was involved in a group discussion where the general impression was that a community site being run by a vendor is bad news. A vendor can never be truly unbiased. I know if I ever see a whitepaper written by a vendor I tend to not really even look at it. It’s that vendor slant they put on everything. They’re usually not as interested in giving you real info as much as plugging their product. Anyway, that’s the news. Perhaps I will be more talky when I’m at a real computer… and after I talk to Red-Gate and see what their plans are for the site and how they are going to eleviate the fears people have with vendor sites. Because can you really have a community site run by a vendor?What do you guys think? Databases
