Cool Blogs has been running for almost nine months now - and it's been an interesting and exciting time.

Our first post was on March 1st 2006; we had been testing behind the scenes for some weeks prior to that.

We've learned a lot about working with you, our readers. We've added features to this site based on feedback, and we have also been pretty open about our editorial and comment policies.

It's feedback time again - how is Cool Blogs working for you? What do you like? Dislike? How can we improve?

[Edit: The common comment is 'More!' with a particular demand for 'More Open Enterprise Server!' Do you agree?]

I wish there were more people at Novell doing it, but overall I'm very happy with it.

Hi Ian,

I'm glad your happy :-), but one additional question. Do you have any specific subjects you would like to see more?

Thanks,
Ron

I had high hopes for it, but unfortunately the product group I'm most interested in (OES) has only had a handful of posts over the nine months. By that measure, it hasn't lived up to expectation.

That said, the concept is absolutely sound and I still read most posts.

I use it to see what is going on with Novell. My only issue is there is very little about the OES. I would like to see more. The main focus seems to be IDM, Zenworks and GroupWise.

Good comments David - we will use this to sharpen our sticks to poke the OES team into blogging more.

Ron,

To echo the comment below by sysadmin1138, OES NetWare/Linux is something I'm very interested in. My core concern on a day to day basis, aside from GroupWise, is my file/print server environment.

I'm getting edgy waiting to listen to the OES2 open audio which is supposed to be posted this week. ;)

More about OES, Linux and ZfD would be nice. I'm not all that interested in Groupwise - we don't use it. Overall though, these blogs are great. Some useful info in here!

We have posted lots of information about ZENworks - what else would you like to see?

Thanks again for noting that we need to add additional Open Enterprise Server bloggers.
