Top 7 Resources to Get the Most Out of Cloudant and Bluemix
This post compiles five of the most helpful resources I have come across. Why five? Well, I want to keep it relatively pointed and easy (for both of us)! Bluemix and Cloudant are continually evolving so inherently resources and articles become dated and new timely and exciting materials will come out for you to enjoy. I plan to update this post as new, more pertinent resources become available. I’ll archive some of the trusty standbys as new content comes available.
Launch of Cloud Foundry Foundation Operations
Last year, IBM and Pivotal announced an agreement to develop an open governance model for Cloud Foundry. As soon as the open source community began to gain influence, interest in Cloud Foundry exploded. We've been rapidly growing our vibrant community of users and contributors who are supportive, engaged, and opinionated about the direction of Cloud Foundry ever since. Today, the Cloud Foundry Foundation launched its formal operations. As a user and a contributor to Cloud Foundry, this is exciting news! Today's launch of the foundation helps ensure that the growth of our community continues. And if you're a developer deploying apps to IBM Bluemix, you're a member of that community!

Top Questions Answered: Watson and Internet of Things
Thank you again to everyone that joined us this year for our 7 webinars on Bluemix. If you missed any of them you can find the replays here. The talk showed us that Watson can provide context to an Internet of Things device. We showed how a person’s tweets could be analyzed by Watson for sentiment and then used to make a decision about a particular radio station that matches the user’s current mood. We then pushed that to a simulated IoT device for the webinar.
