I have a slightly bad habit of leaving lots of tabs open in my browser until I get round to looking at them properly. Unfortunately my laptop seems to be getting a tad unreliable and after the last crash Opera failed to restore all the open tabs I had, which included a few MDM sites I was planning to post about. Here’s a very quick run down of the ones I could remember:
Master Data Management: Rapid Deployment Package for MDM draft redbook
I was presenting on a similar theme at the last Information on Demand conference, and we got quite a few questions about the rapid deployment package after it was announced at the same event. Hopefully this Redbook has all the answers!
A beginner’s guide to MDM (Master Data Management)
I discovered this one after a tweet from @dataqualitypro. Reasonable length introduction to MDM without overdoing it, and with some handy links. Now bookmarked ready for the next, ‘What is MDM?’ question.
A Ning community created by Dan Power, and one of the links in the beginners guide. Looks like it’s building up to be an interesting and active community.
Latest in a series of developerWorks articles on MDM Server security. I’m about to publish a new developerWorks space for the MDM Workbench so I’ve been on the look out for developerWorks articles on MDM. Good to see recent articles for MDM Server on there.
(Ooops, already back up to 36 tabs! Must start tagging and closing them or something.)
Update: the MDM Workbench developerWorks space is now live- I guess that should be a March link but it almost made it in time! (4 March 2009)
Notes from a small field 
Thanks for mentioning the MDM Community – it is developing into an interesting and helpful place for MDM practitioners.
Hey JT, cheers for the link to Data Quality Pro, we’re working on that next MDM post right now so as soon as we’re ready I’ll drop you a line, this is a great blog, glad I found it.
Hi Dan & Dylan, no problem, thanks for stopping by. Both great links- I’m looking forward to reading more on MDM in the future.
Good links and interesting information.MDM community is growing fast!!
