Tibco

[Mich the Tester]

I keep seeing this word 'tibco' in gig ads, so I thought I’d try to find out what it is. I found this on www.tibco.com;

Frack me - that is an echo from the past!

You'll be seeing ads for people with Reuters Triach next.

So why do I have to trawl through pages of management bumph on their website that tells me nothing at all, and then ask the congregation at CUK for an explanation?

Maybe I is a bit simple, me, but I like to know wot someting is before I spend my dosh on it, innit.

Maybe someone who is buying Tibco doesn't actually want to know what he is buying. I would like to speak to that person, and sell him a 'solution'. This solution will probably involve a villa on the Riviera and a yacht for me.

Got it in 1.

It costs an arm, a leg and one bollock as well - management need to be dazzled by bling in order to sign the cheque.

It's a bit of software that solves all your business problems. Oh, and costs a fortune in Consultancy charges to get it to work.

Don't you see??

I see. Mr Tibco, or whatever his name was, had a problem, which was 'I am unable to dream up or produce a useful software product that people will buy'. So he dreamt up a 'solution', which was 'I will use a business bulltulip generator to make a posh sounding text for my website promising solutions to all the problems of businesses, and then I will sell 'consultancy' for many many pounds per hour, and sell this 'solution' to ignorant people whose job is to spend somebody else's money'.

Genius.
