Simple IBM Bluemix Sample accessing IBM Connections
By Niklas Heidloff | 11/3/14 1:47 AM | - | Added by Oliver Busse
I've published a simple sample application that shows how to access IBM Connections Social Cloud from IBM Bluemix. You can find some screenshots on GitHub.
The sample uses AngularJS in the frontend which invokes a REST API returning JSON. The Java backend implementation uses a subset of the Social Business Toolkit SDK to handle the authentication and to easily invoke the Connections REST APIs via the SDK's endpoints and the generic service.

Announcing the NotesIn9 Hackathon: Race to 199
By David Leedy | 9/24/14 2:02 PM | - | Added by Oliver Busse
It’s time.
It’s time for me to get off my duff a little bit and try and “kick this up a notch”.
It’s time for YOU who are reading this post to get a little more involved and “Join the Conversation”
To me a Hackathon is an event were people come together to contribute small pieces to complete a bigger puzzle.
I’ve been thinking of this ever since someone came up with the #CodeForTim hashtag. When we lost Tim, I changed the motto of NotesIn9 to “Learn, Code, Share” to honor my friend and better reflect the mission of NotesIn9. Well that’s what this Hackathon is all about.
