Unlocking The Meaning Of "Keynote"
I’m not so sure we’re going to have a keynote speaker at Gnomedex this year. It’s not for a lack of wanting or trying, but we simply do not take that label as lightly as some conference producers do (nor do we sell that title to any bidder). I feel that everybody attending Gnomedex is [...]

Web 2 Point Oh, My God.
It’s bad enough I have to delete a dozen new social network invites every day, with each one of them hoping to be the “MySpace Killer.” It’s bad enough I have to upload my videos to an increasing amount of video networks just to increase market penetration throughout these “YouTube Killers.” It’s bad enough that [...]
