For those of you who are wondering about what the heck managed beans are and how they related to all things XPages I highly recommend reading Tim Tripcony's blog entry entitled "What the Heck is a Bean" which he orginally posted on May 5, 2011.

Also, the Mastering XPages book does a good job of explaining managed beans. I am very thankful for both Tim's article and the Mastering XPages book as both of these resources helped me out today preparing some material for my "Social Business Toolkit" session which I am giving next week at PACLUG.
