Public life 
| | Just got back from The Schoolhouse pub, where we went for a few pints after the show closed. Bummed that Bernie couldn't make it. Nor Karlin. But Tom and Gary and Antoin were there. Plus the many others I'll insult by failing to name. I'll fill them in later, I hope. |
| | Thanks to all. I had a great time here. The visit certainly shortened the time it'll take to return. |
The plans
| | Okay, so for this evening, we gather first at the Linux.ie booth. Then we go for a few pints at Paddy Cullen's pub across the street, probably. Not sure. |
| | For Saturday night in London, the plan right now is to meet at 7:30pm at Garlic & Shots, kinda like we did a couple years ago. I believe Ben and Matt, pictured at that last link, are out of town (and country). But Euan and others will be there. |
Help blog
| | JD: Any CSS stylesheet gurus out there? The problems involve Mozilla on the Darknet blog. |
Sanity
| | A conversation at the end of Ciaran's talk concerned the maturing of the larger computer market ecosystem |
Just in time to grow old
| | Ciaran's subject on the slide there below concerns "Social Computing." It's a term I first heard when Mark Stahlman and I came up with it after a PC Forum somewhere back in the late '80s. We figured that, as personal computing grew up, the next stage would be social computing. I think we're there now. |
| | Wrote about it way back when too. Here and here. |
No sooner sat than done
| | Just passed a talk on social computing being given here on the floor of the show by Ciaran McCabe of OpenApp, who saved my ass yesterday by driving me back to my hotel to retrieve a forgotten dongle, just in time for my talk in the afternoon. He was talking about blogging, and how instantly one can speak in a human voice to anybody in the world. So I thought I'd sit down and blog that. |
Evidence
| | (Yo: Karlin Lillington just turned around from the row in front of me to say hi. Cool.) |
Onus link
| | Seems to me that's what you should call a link that obliges the linkee to link back. |
On the Internet, nobody knows you're a God
| | Random thought: what if Jesus had a blog? Brings to mind a variation of a familiar cartoon. |
