Don mentions his blog readership is WAY up after the release of the Java Wrappers for iControl Labs project. He'll likely move on to finalize the Blackberry Java iControl app (to manipulate your BIG-IP from your BlackBerry) in the coming weeks. He said he'd be done by next week - right Don???
Joe points to the latest WebAccelerator product release and why it's so awesome. He found a new iControl watch that everyone should buy just because Timex was smart enough to call it iControl. He mentions a fix to the Custom Reporting with iRules Tech Tip. He also talks about the increase in customer/partner interest in automating GTM with iControl. He then refers to the power outage last week in San Francisco (which he misstated as Los Angeles) and how if those companies had GTM, the crisis could have been avoided. He finishes with his iRule Editor tip of the week on how to use the Editor to profile your iRule.
