Welcome to the third installment of Scripting News from Amsterdam. It's mid-afternoon in Europe, the weather is great, I'm relaxed and well-traveled, not well-rested (that's good) and my feet are ready for retirement. And guess what, it's Douglas Adams Day worldwide. Looks like the dinner tomorrow is at 6:30PM at Sluizer at Utrechtsestraat 43. ZDNet: Microsoft, AOL will renew browser pact. We had a great party yesterday in Copenhagen, a group of us, speakers and the people who ran the Reboot show, went swimming, hot tubbing and sauna'ing, then we went to Christiana, an outlaw community in the middle of Copenhagen, and we bonded so nicely. Rushkoff is a real smart guy, so is Justin Hall, and Evan Williams and I had some interesting talks, but more interesting was the synergy that the Reboot people saw between us. I want to talk some more with Evan, and of course I'll get a chance to do that. At one point I said to Evan, let's find new ways to link the communities, and he reminded me that we're doing that tomorrow night. Doh. This is cool! There will be lots of interesting pictures but it's going to take a while to get them all online due to slow net connections, train travel, and outages. It's been an interesting week but with really sporadic net access. I have a dialup line now, but it may get better soon because they have 802.11b at Jamby and I'm a half-block from them. I was interviewed five times in Copenhagen, and there (apparently) is going to be a Dutch TV crew at the party tomorrow. Australian IT: "Blogging is an unfortunate word. It sounds like some worthy, rather dull activity, yet keeping a weblog, at its best, is nimble and quick-witted, hard to capture in old media prose." Here's me in Copenhagen, after a few beers hangin out with Guan Yang, a Danish Radio user. This stuff is quite international. I asked him to put the pic on the Web and he sure did. Nice.
