  Each more we feel the need of becoming more and more web 2.0, it sounds like a physics law to the "guys" that are trying to survivor arround the amazing applications that surround us across the urls. Since few months ago I want to blog post about the new Liferay functionality that let you build PortletURLs using JavaScript only. There are many places you can apply...

There are times when I don't want to deal with the start up time of an integrated development environment and opt to use a fast-loading text editor instead. By making this trade-off, I wind up losing many of the nifty productivity features that are built into IDEs. One feature that can be taken for granted is the ability to run build targets with a double-click. By leaving the...

Here are some pictures from our third annual company retreat in Los Angeles. It was really fun hanging out with everyone. And what do we do when we get together? Play an international sport everyone loves. Soccer! That's Ed, our head of sales, chasing Sang, our general manager in South East Asia. Glad no one got hurt. Look at Dave chase that soccer ball.

It's been a very long time since my last post but I promise I'll make up for it with a series of posts about the latest features we've been working on for the next releases of Liferay Portal. But first, I want to blog about a topic that I think will be of a lot of interest for Portal developers: how to optimize Liferay to make development faster. In other words...

  One of the cool features of Liferay Social Office is its use of Office Integration.   When collaborating with others it is often a huge hassle to create a document and then email it back and forth with updated versions.  You never know if you have the latest version or if someone was left out of the latest update email blast.  Social Office takes care...

This week I'm pleased to announce the first beta release of Liferay Social Office, Liferay's new social collaboration software. While Liferay Portal has had social networking, web 2.0, and collaboration functionality for some time, Social Office is our first effort at putting it all together in a intuitive and integrated way. Social Office has an elegant new interface...

One of the benefits of having our own dedicated SVN servers is that we have been able to set up a Fisheye server at http://svn.liferay.com. We tried to set up Fisheye against our Sourceforge.net servers, but because of the size of our repository and remote connection we could never get the initial index to complete. We've also set up the Fisheye plugin for JIRA so that you can view...
