Livecast of my fence and me showing off my book - thank you Robert

Robert Scoble shot a real-time Kyte livecast of our open mesh fence, and we talked about the book - I’ve written called “How to build the Open Mesh”.

The livecast had chat in it - so people from around the world were typing me questions during the  interview which was pretty invigorating.

The quality of the video is pretty funky (and it freezes at 24:00 - and just audio continues), but all the more better to zoom in on the message in the book, and not get distracted by the  visuals of the fence and my waving arms and ranting attitude.

I had just received a few drafts of the book - so that’s what I’m holding in my hands throughout the interview.

I’ll make sure that better quality videos are shot of the fence - don’t worry.  But in the mean time, I still have to run a software company.

As soon as I’m done with this post, I’m gonna go fix what typos I can find and put up a version on Blurb - since over 8k people get Robert’s Kyte livecasts.

Meanwhile I’m headed to Rotterdam next week to give a presentation on the book at EmmerceDay and I’ll be keeping it up to date as new things transpire in our industry (eg. the Portable Contacts camp Sept. 11th and this Friday’s Bearhug Camp.)  That’s one coolio thing about on-demand publishing.  I can just go and update the book’s source - and when you go to buy it, you get the most recent version.

Hold onto these early copies - cause I suspect this is gonna end up beign like Ted Nelson’s “Computer Lib”.
