diginomica.com - "insights for the digital enterprise." On May 7, 2013, five seasoned (some might say grizzled) enterprise bloggers launched diginomica. The result of five months of "evil planning," diginomica.com presents a new approach to enterprise analysis and storytelling. The site is completely free (well, almost) of consumer tech hype and gadget fluffery, focusing only on the stories that matter to the transformation of the enterprise.diginomica's name reflects the necessary dependency of tech and business in the so-called digital age. There is no advertising on diginomica.com. In this publishing model, our partners add customer-focused content to the site's narratives. That means no advertorial, and our partners know we mean it. What the future holds for diginomica.com remains to be seen but I'm honored to be a part of this "founding five" and our launch feedback has been terrific. The site is built from the ground up with mobile consumption in mind, so you have no excuse not to check it out, even if you are a warrior of the road as many of us are in this biz.

He hopes that the honest commentary on the site will lead JonERP.com to become a trusted destination for SAP professionals in the NetWeaver era.

The front end of Allen Davis and Associates, SoftwareJobs.com was one of the first Internet-based recruiting firms. As the Vice President of SoftwareJobs.com, I managed the ERP recruiting division and was the highest billing recruiter each year within the firm. In 1995, I launched the "Opportunities in SAP" email newsletter, the first email newsletter of its kind. By the time I moved on from SoftwareJobs.com in 2000, the newsletter had more than 7,000 subscribers, and its sister newsletters, "New Directions in ERP" and "Extending the Enterprise," which I also conceived and founded, had more than 4,000 combined subscribers. I billed more than $1,000,000 in recruiting revenues during my years with SoftwareJobs.com, and the writing I did for the SoftwareJobs.com web site became the basis for the SAP Consultant Handbook.
