We have a winner! My good pal Craig Burton's grandaughter, Surfin' Pixie, who lives in Costa Rica, won Member of the Day today on Bolt.com. Way to go, girl! And to think that it was just this past Sunday that I had my first surfing experience in that very same ocean. (Mine was in Malibu. Practice for the Ultimate in Costa Rica sometime soon.) It used to be basketball. Now it's this. Keeping up with the Joneses is easy: they don't exist. Keeping up with yourself is another matter, especially if you write one of these weblog things on a near-daily basis (hourly in some cases). I went connectionless between Friday and Now, and I'm off to Linux World Expo in a few minutes. I just downloaded about 400 emails. One of the two I opened said this:
I've only read the first chapter, but something about the underlying idea sounded, to me, exactly like something that could be the underlying idea of Cluetrain (not that I could actually state what this "underlying idea" is or anything like that). So, the question is: have you read Dee Hock's book ? If so, did it sound familiar ? Or am I just way off base here ? By the way: great weblog. The answer is yes and yes to the first two questions. Actually, the book was given to my wife and I by Casey Hughes, who we met at the SOHO Summitt in June, and who set this past weekend in motion. For a while it looked like Dee would be there. While that didn't happen, much other amazing stuff did. I'll try to catch up with it later. I don't have the time, but I do have this Weblog jones.
