Migration News 2008

When I was a newbie in the industry the “big news” was a utility switching from one vendor to another. Smallworld wins were a big deal, for example and press announcements the way to tell the story. Now the turf is the Web and Microsoft is touting, via blog (and one PR), switching Yellowbook off MapQuest onto Virtual Earth and Windermere’s real estate tool Property Point 3 moving off an ESRI/Google solution onto the platform. I’m guessing, but don’t really know that the dollars were much bigger back in the “utility flip” days.
