Broadsoft Wants Your Mad Mashup Skills
In: web resources
8 Apr 2009
I’ve always felt mashups represent the greatest opportunity to deliver game-changing benefits to organizations experimenting with Enterprise 2.0. Although a lot of what I’ve seen in the mashup community I coin “mapups” because they’re based on the Google Maps open API plus another interesting data set. Serious mashups are not for beginners and still require a developer’s skill, but many vendors are making inroads here – such as IBM and Serena Software.
Sponsor
A contest that crossed my desk this morning is one sponsored by BroadSoft, Inc. and IBM. Broadsoft, a leading provider of VOIP applications, has announced its second annual XContestv2 developer challenge. Broadsoft has over 1,600 developers in its network eligible to compete in the contest. With the increased Enterprise interest in lowering costs and improving productivity with VOIP alternatives, there should be a strong response to this year’s contest.
Broadsoft claims that the winning mashups will have exposure to over 500 million subscribers via its Xtended Marketplace. Winners will be awarded cash prizes worth over $30,000, in addition to the market exposure. Contestants that incorporate IBM WebSphere Presence Server and WebSphere XML Document Management Server (XDMS) tools will be eligible for a cash bonus, as well. The winning first place mashup last year was a simple, yet useful disaster dispatching application won by “Mr. Mashup” Thomas Howe, now CEO of Jaduka. This year’s winners will be showcased at the Broadsoft’s user conference.
Registration starts today and continues through April 27. Idea submissions will be accepted through May 18 and developers have until July 31 to submit their working applications and prototypes. Winners will be announced September 9.

i am not sure on what brands exactly. but you can find some girls but boy style jeans which are so comfy and can still look good. but a cute suit will work as well and you can still look like a girl but a girl that means business. my favourite brands are sass and bide, levis, babydoll and biatch. my all time favourite designer is alannah hill. her clothes are absolutely gorgeous. you can always wear wedges, they look good and dont hurt your feet like heels. and then there are the ballet flats that so many people are into these days.
hope that helps you get some ideas.

I've never heard of any. I know when I played through I got equally frustrated a time or two, but considering how many possible combinations there are of presenting evidence at different parts of testimony it's likely you've just overlooked something.
If you're really stuck, you might want to give the Spoiler-Free Walkthrough at GameFAQs a look.
It gives exact simple directions on what should be done in order. Just don't scroll too far and ruin your own further play by knowing exactly what to do, but it's a great way to find that one part that's killing you.
