I remember an early conversation or two with you, in 2003, about digital lifestyle aggregators and have watched as much of what you were describing has slowly slid into place. I'm pretty sure I understood / understand what you meant by DLA's and have tried explaining the concept to people but have stopped .. as I get pissed off (tho' probably not as much as you might) at what seems like an ubiquitous and omnipresent desire by most everyone to have everything be as simple as describing Kleenex. That said, I personally do not find the concept of DLA's or open standards all that difficult to understand. I am sure that you will continue along your path of original thinking. What's that saying ... "You can always tell who the pioneers are .. they're the ones walking around with all the arrows sticking out of their backs".
