Collaboration is not a dirty word
I’ve been at Atlassian for a month now, and it’s time to admit that I never really got the whole wiki thing. (This is something I’m glad I didn’t have to own up to during my interviews.) Until now. Before starting with Atlassian, I thought that Wikipedia was the only real world wiki. But apparently, […]
SSO Integration: How Crowd Connected the Apps
We’re excited to introduce our first Crowd case study! Learn how Appfire Technologies connected Crowd to a handful of different applications, including Salesforce.com. Also, read the how and the why Crowd is now Appfire Technologies’ single sign-on (SSO) solution of choice. Here’s a clip from the case study: Q: What’s the real challenge when it […]
Jira Studio: Linking
A few days ago we introduced the newest Atlassian offering, Jira Studio. Jira Studio combines Jira, Confluence, Subversion, Fisheye, and Crucible in a single integrated development suite. While it’s not yet quite ready for prime time, we’re plugging away at it and as we continue to refine features, we’ll be blogging them here. One of […]
Technology is a man’s world…. NOT
We’ve recently sponsored two SF Bay Area women’s events and just agreed to sponsor a third, so it seemed like as good a time as any to blog about it. The sponsored events include Girls in Tech, She’s Geeky, and the upcoming Women 2.0. All the blame or kudos 🙂 for our involvement really belongs […]
Wedding on my Wiki!
After attending 7 weddings this past season, I got a good idea of what I would and would not do at my wedding. After proposing to my long term girlfriend last month, I really had to start thinking about this and how to plan. I quickly came to one solution…. Confluence!
Talking Nerdy
Developers really do have a language of their own, one which can be hard for non-developers to decipher. A terse sentence fired over IM can communicate reams of information. “It’s a kludge, but put the tuple from the database in the cache.” The problem is — as this video shows — even developers themselves can […]
Atlassian Supported Plugins
By all measures, the Atlassian Plugin Libraries have been a tremendous success. We now host more than 350 different plugins, the vast majority of which are open-source and free to use. Most of these plugins have been developed and donated by generous members of our community. What may have started as small, internal projects to […]
Melbourne Cup Lunch
The equine flu and the rain couldn’t damper the spirits of the Sydney Atlassianites as we headed across stormy seas for our annual Melbourne Cup Lunch. Everyone scrubbed up very well, there is after all, only one day a year when you have to wear a suit at Atlassian. Our CFO even managed to win […]
Confluence Plugin Repository back to the future
Just a quick note to let everyone know that the Confluence Plugin Repository has finally caught up to the present and all of the new plugins that have been released recently are finally available for download. The plugin repository got itself stuck, but we’ve finally gotten it un-wedged. My apologies for the inconvenience.
Enterprise 2.0: wikis, social networks, & the strength of weak ties
Andrew McAfee recently wrote a post called How to Hit the Enterprise 2.0 Bullseye that looks at how multiple tools like wikis, blogs, and social networks are useful to workers in complementary ways. He defines a bullseye and set of concentric cirles that represent the typical worker’s ties to others as strong, weak, potential, and […]
Spot the plugin
Out of the box, Confluence is beaut. Add a plugin or two, and your documents glow. So which plugins do we use in the Atlassian product documentation? Here at Atlassian, we use a wiki for almost all our product documentation. On our Confluence site, you’ll find user guides, administration guides and other technical documentation for […]
