I think the trouble is, the average user of enterprise software has not chosen to use it; his or her CIO chose it, and now the user's stuck with it. ;-)

APIs. Let the users, the internal IT departments, etc, have access to the data that is in the systems. They should be able to *easily* write their own extensions, modules -- basically, enterprise mashups.

Something like these may already exist, but I've been thinking that the only way for Enterprise apps to mirror the success that consumer web 2.0 apps have had is to emulate the openness of the APIs, open up the data, so to speak.

Keep the best of BEA, I think its BPM capabilities are stronger than Oracle's, so make sure it integrates well, and don't the good people of BEA SOA team go...

Adopt the best of what you're soon to own of the BEA stack (specifically the ALUI, Pages and Pathways bits), and voila, you HAVE facebook for the enterprise that runs in either a Microsoft or a Jave platform!

I hate to say I told you so, but Amazon beat you to the punch on this: http://www.amazon.com/b?ie=UTF8&node=...

Still, it's a big market and I'm sure Oracle could spin a very different story around its offering. What fun we're having now with this great big, wonderful system of tubes we've got!

While you're at it, open source the code so we can all contribute and extend the platform.

I would love to see something like mix/connect that is free for all customers. License it to anyone who buys the Oracle app server like you do with Mapviewer. Many organizations need an internal site like that and don't have the resources to spend or the ability to convince management that they need an "internal facebook" with a price tag attached. It would be easy to upsell them into the features of WebCenter spaces at that point once they were hooked on the mix ;-).

Cool Idea Thor - I'll pass it along to the team...

How about a utility Web service (a la Amazon S3) designed around Oracle's enterprise data products? There are probably issues around doing this effectively (latency) but in theory it's an appealing concept.
