One of the main announcements at InterConnect was the formation of the new Internet of Things division. That announcement got me thinking about how Watson can be leveraged in the Internet of Things world. Specifically, how can the Question & Answer services and products be used by IBM customers and partners that have solutions in that space.
Rapid Watson Service development with new Node.js packages
I’m excited about a new node package created to simplify Watson Service development on Bluemix. This weekend I decided to sit down and play with the new package. The watson-developer-cloud package simplifies integration of Node.js applications with the Watson Services. While currently in alpha, it is extremely useful and allows for rapid delivery of cognitive-powered Node.js applications. So, what are you waiting for? Install it and get started using it!

I will walk through the process to create the necessary artifacts in Bluemix and use a sample C# application with Watson's Question and Answer service.
