At Mozilla today

Thursday, August 16, 2007 by Dave Winer.

I'm at Mozilla headquarters in Mountain View today, giving at talk in a few minutes, about RSS and blogging and Firefox. As usual, I'm going to talk for 10 or 15 minutes, just tell a story or two, and then ask for a discussion.  

Today's talk came about from a random meeting with Brendan Eich at a party early this year. I had heard him once on a Gillmor Gang podcast, and found our philosophies more or less match. 

Given recent experience I'm going to try not to be too critical, but I've been encouraged to be honest and direct. Yes, imho they have made some mistakes with RSS, but there are some really big opportunities here too.  

BTW, if you're in the room at Mozilla, reading this, please cough three times so I know you're here.
