    @termie: Aha, cool! I should probably re-watch that Jaiku presentation to see what the hecklers were saying :)

    I guess the less I tell the more interesting I seem.

    It's pretty much summed above: a guy was talking about his experiences with two startups, of which the first made 'enterprise software'. In the audience there happened to be somebody who had had the misfortune of using said 'enterprise' software and shared his pain with the rest of us.

    As it was a small event with speakers hard to come by I'm leaving out the names...

    Have to say there are very few fans of "enterprise software" in the world. At least among those who have actually had to use it in anger :)
