What I believe we are seeing is domain experts seeking each other out. Crossing organizational and philosophical boundaries.

…someone that’s G-list globally might be A-list amongst pet owners.

A very, very good point that I’d missed at first thought about the Whuffie Web. There’s a matter of scale involved [...]

I see that Mark Pilgrim has posted a picture of himself as a kid, working at an Apple //e. Based on what I wrote this past Summer about being Newly Digital in 1983, I would guess that around the same time I was working on a Commodore 64, and I would have teased him [...]

Let’s do a demo of the Semantic Web, the real one, the one that exists today. Doc Searls has a question about the iQue 3600 hand-held GPS. It is sexy. They say it only works with Windows, but Doc thinks it probably works with Linux too. A couple of thousand really smart people will [...]

Mark Pilgrim published the most definitive [...]

After playing with an N-Gage, I think sidetalkin.com is freakin’ hillarious. One thought on this sidetalking thing, though:
At least it keeps the screen from getting all schmutzed. My Treo 300 screen gets absolutely filthy, due to me pressing the slab up against my head to talk. Also, there seems to be a [...]

For the past year or two, I’ve been trying an experiment in my
personal research and learning. I’ve been seeking out tools and
technologies which are as different as possible from those with which
