Dec. 5th 2007 blogging
Doing last minute errands for my next trip. VISA to India, haircut, new supplies, setting up appointments and of course - setting up wikis.
OpenID2 is done. Congrats to all involved - including David Recordon, Dick Hardt, Scott Kveton and hordes of others. OpenID accepted on 8,000 site so far. Here’s a screen cast called ‘Understanding OpenID’.
Zuckerberg listens to Scoble and eats crow, uses the blogosphere and continues to act like a new age/Web 2.0 CEO. Facebook continues to show Teflon attributes. And Opt-out enters our vernacular. Maybe if it had started with Opt-in in the first place, we wouldn’t have had to go through all this.
Meanwhile hopefully someone will invest in Sam Sethi - so he can pay the bills. First Arrington, now this, me thinks there’s rotten cheese in……
Congrats to Loic - I was worried about undo Pincus influences, but it looks like Winer an Arrington are keeping him honest. Besides - he’s French - how could he go wrong?
I like the notion of ‘the mother of all battles’ - as you know - I believe in battlefield metaphors.
Imagine that - customers being able to exchange data between each other. Call it a feature. Charge for it.
The tale of another has-been old friend who actually got a book deal. There are 100 books like this - maybe one day I’ll write mine.
Another incredible blogger rave for Virgin America. If this keeps up - all the seats will disappear - and they’ll be booked solid for years to come!
Ouch, Spouse 2.0, new Google iPhone UI, Silverlight for Linux, Knocka, oAuth core 1.0, Squeeze 4.8,

So since you like battlefield metaphors, you really liked the movie “Aliens”, right? It was definitely the battle of all mothers.
