Arje Cahn (Hippo) — Hippo CMS 7.4 preview: version compare

This is work in progress - but I got so excited when I saw it working that I couldn't resist turning it into a quick Friday afternoon demo video. This functionality will be released in Hippo CMS 7.4 which is scheduled for June, so I'm afraid I'm going to have to ask you for a bit of patience - bu

Arje Cahn (Hippo) — What's wrong with portals?

March 11, 2010

This post clearly describes the problem that I see with all current portal implementations: they treat content as “just another application running

Vijay Kiran (Hippo) — The First Golden Hippo

February 27, 2010

Yesterday I joined the hippo professional services team for a fun filled team event with go karting evening and the first ever Golden Hippo Award event. The evening started with go karting fun, we were competing with each other. This was the first time I ever did this, I failed miserably in the qualifiers. Clearly I’m much more efficient with cars with horns and plenty of people crossing the road and blocking.

The competition was along the lines of F1 racing with one training lap, 3 Qualifier rounds. And the top 5 drivers from the qualifiers went on to compete in the grand finale. And  the winners of the evening were Tjeerd, Stefan and Kenan.

After the karting, the Golden Hippo award was announced – Starting this quarter, every quarter the one of the member of the professional services will be chosen by popular vote ( by peers and Hippo partners) and will be awarded with the Golden Hippo. That’s not all, at the end of the year, the team is also planning to give out yearly “Platinum Hippo Award” – for the best team member voted similarly. The awards also come with nice little bonus as well.

And the first Golden Hippo winner for Q1 this year is Marijan Milicevic, he got the most number of votes for Q1. Marijan has also contributed to several projects on Hippo Forge  - Import Tool, Simple Validation Framework and Easy Forms HST Component etc.

Today we will leave the office by taxi to a secret 'kart' location where we will be treated to some (non alcoholic) drinks, some "bittergarnituur" and a presentation by Stefan. Later on we will get a short introduction in how a kart works (probably only useful for myself) and do a training lap. Thr
