Dave Winer Bio

Hey -- I'm getting a bunch of speaking offers that are cool, and they all need a brief 100-word bio for me. So I thought it would make sense to turn it into a web page. I guess that's just the way it works nowadays.

Dave Winer, 41, is president of UserLand Software, a web developer based in Palo Alto, CA. UserLand makes Frontier, a powerful scripting and database environment for the Mac OS and Windows. In late 1994, Winer started DaveNet, a popular commentary channel, distributed via electronic mail and thru the worldwide web. A software industry veteran, Winer also produced award-winning commercial software hits at Living Videotext, such as ThinkTank, Ready and MORE. Living Videotext merged with Symantec in 1987. In 1997 he was chosen as a Seybold Fellow for his pioneering work in web-based publishing systems.
