The practice partner to my research assistant position has my boss invited me to visit the CeBIT. In addition to the exchange on my current work on the portfolio issue, I had such an opportunity, a number of interesting companies and products meet.
In terms of portfolio and ePortfolio work
In conversation with Mr. Zimmermann of the IMC, I have learned from the project SABINE . Behind this name hides a Porfolioanwendung that uses the profile information of its users for allocation of suitable jobs or further education. Up to this point, the whole thing reads like a copy of established services, such as Xing. The peculiarity is that the free input skills are matched based on ontological links to the input of employers. This assignment is still limited to the areas of marketing and sales, but can be extended in a follow-up project to other areas. Also currently missing the user can refine their submissions, the quality of the assignment on. Another special feature is the intention of full integration with Facebook. The user may allow the application to access his profile to evaluate its data for relevant advert. Lack of information could, for example, to his previous career are taken from Xing by Data Scan.

Mobile Devices - Asus EEE Pad
I had the hope of being able to watch two iPad Xoom competitors Motorola and Blackberry playbook, but unfortunately the two products were not issued. Instead, I was able to take a look at the Asus EEE pad including Android Gingerbreed 3.0. What shall I write? Feels good, can use super and I like to thanks to open software structure some better than the current or obsolete since yesterday ipad first

Microsoft's giant touchscreen
Microsoft's trade fair was staged under the motto "Your way to the cloud begins here," what impresses me, though really, was the incredibly large touch screen, the all day presentations were presented around the new cloud-Startegie. Unfortunately, the talks on the presentations are often not convincing - too smooth, too impersonal and unpleasant way to business-like!

| top presentation, lecture Flupp way! Smooth, expressionless, just business! |
The quality of the presented products and services unfortunately I can not judge what has impressed me, however, were the objects of the individual companies, including SAP, IBM and the German Telekom. I was however disappointed by the whole field of consumer electronics, the atmosphere I was strongly reminded of my first and last visit at the Games Convention 2006th
summary, I believe that CeBIT forms all her charm only, if you are a business man with the intention of networking breaks forth. Ideally, one already has contacts and can work on this route from stand to stand, so as to come into the benefits of good food and lots of pens.
