Plenty of reporting available that would have identified keywords and geo performance stats. Adwords seems easy enough but it's pretty complex to get things done right.

Another tactic I'll use is actually parse thru apache log for adwords clicks looking for duplicate IP's. File a complaint with google to get a refund if I see patterns of abuse.

Also factor in the operational costs with running your own data center and people to keep things running 24x7. Floor space, storage, power, disaster recovery, people = $$$. Companies have moved away from mainframes and the long term costs

Nothing, it's a corporate identity problem. IBM has alot of organizations and many have good people who advocate developer tools and build products. Then you have the dark side with marketing and global services, where promises are n

Non-technicals for most corporations will always make the buying decisions because it's about $$$. There is IBM's fundamental problem, "next few years" which means we're guessing today and guessing tomorrow.

IBM should ask Watson how to fix the company first, then it would have some credibility. They don't treat there employees very well either, but neither does Oracle so why would anybody waste time working for losers. +1 "dog shit

Pretty common practice at IBM to get an account, migrate all the people over and then transition them to india, brazil, and mexico at dirt cheap rates. Only 1/10 of converted employees will be left after 2 years. Watson is trying to f
