Closer, closer.

Frogdesign and Motorola are getting closer to this wearable computing package I’ve been harping about for months. Check out the story right over here.

Proof I was there.

First shot, courtesy of the good Matthew “photomatt” Mullenweg, is here (I’m in the red shirt between Jeff and Min Jung). Second is a team shot of our winning kickball team, Break Balls with Brad, courtesy of the one and only Brad Graham. I’m the one standing beside Cam and behind the Asian girl whose […]

Back in Bethesda.

Well, another SXSW has come and gone. I will be posting some stuff imminently, but I seem to be having yet more issues with our server. This is getting ridiculous. Oh, and I’m more or less sold on the idea of migrating this whole party over to Movable Type. Things are going to break. Stay […]

Quick flash of blue.

Sudden burst of melancholy at the thought that in a handful of minutes, I’ve got to leave my tribe. Bummer.

Aaaaaand live from the She-Trott/Dash/Bausch/He-Trott/Hall Show.

Posting from a really really awesome panel on “Beyond the Blog” at SXSW. This is, sadly, my last panel to attend at SXSW 2003, ’cause I’m leavin’ on a jet plane in about three hours. And these Texans might be a little wacky on their airport security. They might not be, but I’m just sayin’. […]

Live from the Smokler/Bickner/Brown/Powazek/Champ/Schmidt Show.

Jeez. In a big schedule mess, the Book Culture panel led by the good Mr. Smokler is at the same time as the Surviving Your Collaborative Project panel led by the good Mr. Powazek. The good Mr. Long has never wished so much for a split-consciousness doppelganger.

Good times, old friends.

Having myself a time with Kevin, Leonard, Min Jung, Ernie and everybody else. I was on the winning time in a kickball game. I got to hang out with my old friend Jennifer Shorb last night. This post will be rife with links when it is no longer rude to be spending time posting instead […]

Live from SXSW!

Posting live from a panel at SXSW. If you only hear from me intermittently this weekend, that’s why. 🙂

Feeling antsy.

So I read a weblog post this afternoon about SXSW jumping the shark this year. I think that might have some truth to it, but only as a reflection of the general malaise that has seized the whole country lately. This whole will-we-or-won’t-we dance with Iraq, the crappy economy, the bitterly cold winter… It just […]

A tip for an enterprising barista.

So, the good Doc Searls recently observed the following: I’m back at the same Starbucks, getting my hour’s worth of wi-fi for ten minutes actual use. I can blog and get email, for some reason; but I can’t browse, because I get redirected every time to an F-Mobile sign-up page.Earth to Starbucks: Get another provider […]
