There’s a feeding frenzy on right now around Facebook’s apps.
Fred Wilson is pissing off Dave Winer. Me too. He’d better watch out or else we’re gonna invent a new paradigm and he’ll have to sell another expensive Greenwich village townhouse.
I’ve been waiting to see how long it would take for hardware vendors to get a […]

…. being the CEO of Yahoo would actually be a horrible job.  Dealing with Wall St. and all these bimbos that just don’t matter - is not my idea of a good time. But some high level position, where I get to do my thang, change theworld, unite the disributed mesh and leave LOTS of […]

Next Web Conference In Amsterdam
The second Next Web Conference is in Amsterdam in a week or so. I’m looking forward to attending. Marc Canter and I will be sitting in a “special” area and have been given full permission to “comment” on all the presentations. We’ll make asses […]

Its such a good name, but I knew we wouldn’t be the only ones trying to achieve this enviable […]

We finally found some wifi (at Paolo’s office) as our apartment has not gotten it’s net hookup yet.  We’re right on the Piazza Unita - where government, tourism and partying all come together.
Lots of great things going on - but for now - here’s the view outside our window.  That’s the Castle Miramare in the […]

What I was witnessing were two different defintions of DLAs - which is exactly what I was writing about the […]

… with Jeff Clavier. We sat in a box and commented on each showcase presentation.

The hi-tech conference is coming down to an art of science. The speed pitches, the hallway kiosks/demos, sponsor driven, feedback energy, “let me picth you my idea” action, bubble generating, hype ridden - but it’s all good - kind of […]
