Did you attend a Pulse Comes to You Event? Many of the GTUG council members did attend. Here is one member's account of the benefits and values.
David Murray - President of the Carolinas Tivoli User Group and a GTUG council member
I had the opportunity to attend the Pulse Comes to You event in Charlotte, NC on June 4, 2009. I felt the event was very well attended and was a valuable use of my time.
This afforded many people an opportunity to see what IBM is doing in the Tivoli arena without the need to have expensive travel. With travel budgets being cut it is hard to find an opportunity like this where a person mingles with IBM executives and the subject matter experts who are setting the direction for the Tivoli portfolio.
Two key highlights for me was the keynote address which was based on Dynamic Infrastructure "The why and the How" and Duke Energy's presentation on their Asset management project using Tivoli Maximo.
If you attended, there were three tracks that you could attend. Improve service, Manage risk and reduce cost, and a hot topics tracks. I spent time in each of the tracks and all the presentations I attended were excellent with knowledgeable presenters. In fact, many good questions were raised and all were answered.
As stated by many of the attendees at the event, it was an excellent opportunity to see the direction of Tivoli and to network with IBM, other customers, and your peers- especially those Tivoli User Community members from the Carolinas User Group.

The New Frontier - join IBM.com's social communities! At Pulse, IBM also kicked off the beginnings of three other new communities with the same capabilities where the community can share questions, news, standards, and best practices and asks questions of IBM, Business Partners, and the larger community.
- Service management community: More of a focus on solutions that work across multiple IBM and Business Partner solutions, the Service Management field, and analyst reports.
- Tivoli community: More of a focus on Tivoli products and Tivoli-identified community stakeholders such as User Groups, Business Partners, IBM Tivoli teams
- Tivoli research volunteers group: A group where the community agrees to receive invitations to participate in research opportunities on prototypes for new Tivoli product designs, improving messaging, communications, and more.
All these IBM communities can be found here
