Sorry for the lack of updatesFriday, August 10, 2007 by Dave Winer. I'm mostly sitting around listening to the conference speakers. Guy Kawasaki was awesome. He and I come from the same school of software. I agree with everything in his talk about evangelism. Other speakers were pretty good. The first speaker of the morning, Robert David Steele Vivas, was a Rush Limbaugh class idiot. I know Chris has some nutty libertarian ideas, I think he'll outgrow them eventually. But this guy was a total wacko choice to open the show. Me, I'm practicing silence. Just doing the hallway thing. Had a great talk with a guy from Netflix, as you know I want them to give the users control of their movie ratings. I think there's a chance they may do it. I'm using my Flickr-to-Twitter web service to take portraits of all kinds of Gnomesexers. You can see the latest in my Twitter stream or log directly onto Flickr. All of them are tagged with gnomedex07. Mike Arrington got sick. I think he's in the area, but is missed. There's a surprise planned for tomorrow evening. Can't say what it is. |
