I’m here at our partnets in Gurgaon, a suburb of Delhi.
The rain is supposed to stop in mid-August and it was great yesterday, but today - rain.
This place is exploding, new highways, apartment buildings, shopping malls. Or partners - Tekriti are growing, spending every Saturdays doing interviews.
We’re doing a Blogger dinner on Tuesday night [...]

Arrived in a hot muggy Gurgoan - which theyt tell me is nice weather.
“You should have been here last month” they all said.
I haven’t been here in 30 years - and I’m looking forward to working with our partners here in building DLAs for the world.
Real code - shipping - soon.
These are the folks who [...]

So one of the negative sides of using NewsGator is that when my Outlook fills up, freezes and basically prevents me from getting any work done - I have to turn off my aggregator.
Work before blogging.
So now I’ll start the 10,000 feed troll again - trying to keep up with what’s going on.
Oh me oh [...]

So over two years ago I met Karsten Becker and he showed me his open source hi-end video editing tool - JahShaka. It’s had over 200k downloads right now and has it’s own unique niche in the market - the free niche.
I’ve already written about V2 being out - and now I get to [...]

John Battelle has announced more speakers for his Web 2.0 conference.
I can’t wait to see Barry Diller debate Shawn Fanning and Mary Meeker and the wisdom of Mark Cuban’s disruptive approach to movie release schedules.
Or Jonathan Miller debate Pierre Omidyar and Terry Semel on whether Tim O’Reilly is hanging out with Adam Curry too much.
Or [...]

Had a great day giving a speech and hanging with old friends and relatives in this beautiful city.
Next stop - London.
Family is in tow.

Paul Martino (of Tribe and InterTrust fame) is launching wsfinder.com - which is a place to list:

all APIs and web services that are publically available for people to play with.

There’s also a blog.
I sure hope that Paul saw Lucas Gonze’s excellent “Notes on developing a web service API“

Bob Wyman of PubSub left this comment on Phil Pearson’s blog (after Phil blogged my Law #1):
It bothers me that so much of this “format war” revolves around concepts like “making someone happy.” Perhaps I’m just an old fart, but what I was taught at DEC back in the 70’s and 80’s was that the [...]

So Xeni pointed to this great article on the French Quarter community center that has grown up at a place called Johnny White’s.
Hah! I thought, what a small world we live in. It was there that my first girlfriend (my original love), both of us sufficiently lubricated, told me she loved me. [...]

So today is my most prolific blogging day of 2005.
I’ve been really slacking ever since:
- we got into building ourmedia.org
- we shipped ourmedia.org
- we announced several deals
- we’re busy building those deals
I’d much rather be building things than talking about it. But there are all these other things people are doing, all these events [...]
