InfoQ officially launched exactly one year ago today, and what a year it has been! Our mission is to be the world's source for tracking change and innovation in the enterprise software development community; with content at the level of depth and focus needed for team leads, architects and project managers. In keeping with that mission InfoQ has published:
It has been a great first year, and definitely the first of many. Upcoming additions include more great content + a new community on architecture, we will be bringing QCon to San Francisco Nov 6-9 (to be announced), and InfoQ Japan will be launching this summer, and we will continue to innovate with the features of the site (yes and with search too). :)
Thanks to the community at large and especially the blogosphere for all the announcements of our content - our super fast growth of membership was all word-of-mouth driven. And thanks especially to our editorial team of ongoing in-the-field practitioners: Jonathan Allen (lead .NET editor), Sebastien Auvray, Kurt Christensen, James Cox, Scott Delap (lead Java editor), Amr Elssamadisy, Deborah Hartmann (lead Agile editor), Obie Fernandez (lead Ruby editor), Ben Hughes, James Kao, Mark Little, Werner Schuster, Rob Thornton, Stefan Tilkov (lead SOA editor), James Vastbinder, Hartmut Wilms, and Geoffrey Wiseman. We are always looking to add to our editorial team, feel free to email us if you'd like to join! Thanks also to InfoQ's awesome full time staff Diana Plesa, Roxanne Beverstein, Jason Lai, and Kevin Huo, and especially the dev team led by Alexandru Popescu including Cristi Buta, and Mihai Ganea.
