history
Some of us began blogging about Business Objects in 2005. The original intent was to share knowledge with others in a more effective manner than that with which we originally obtained that knowledge. Lack of feedback, personal challenges, and a bunch of other obstacles kept us from giving back to the Business Objects global community beyond that short-lived effort. In the late summer of 2008, our primary contributor, Julian, learned a little about web site building and promotion and he decided to revive his sharing of BO knowledge.
purpose
The global Business Objects user community is already well-served by at least 3 or 4 BO forums, and at least one of them is truly outstanding! In fact, the help we received over the years from BOB inspired us to give back. However, instead of competing with BOB, we seek to compliment. To fill the gaps by providing regularly published tips, tricks, tutorials, guides, and blog discussions all on the topic of everything Business Objects. Topics are generally selected by the authors based on knowledge and perceived value to the community. Guides are meticulously written to fill larger gaps and hopefully provide a means of supporting website administration. We also hope to learn from our audience from their comments left on the site and their emails.
biography
Julian Romeo is our main contributor for now and the web master as well. He has been wrestling and occasionally gracefully waltzing with BusinessObjects since 2003. He is a senior member at BOB and considered a Business Objects authority at his current Fortune 100 employer. BusinessObjectsTips.com is a “late-night job” for Julian, but one that he still manages to enjoy when he isn’t working his day job, sleeping, or spending quality time with his family.
