It’s not too late to show off your mad skills at 360|Flex

The API contest is up and running, you ain’t even got to be there to win, though, we’d sure like to meet you if you do win! The contest site is pretty straight forward; build a cool app, upload or link to it, explain it, tell us what API you used. It’s that simple! Next [...]

Cluetrain turns 10

Sadly I won’t be there to celebrate! Tom and I tried to figure out how to be in New York tomorrow (my birthday by the way) but it just couldn’t be done. between consulting, and my birthday, and 360|Flex Atlanta a little over a week away, it just wasn’t in the stars. Tom and I [...]

International Apple

I had to run to the Apple store yesterday to pick up iLife ’08, and while I was trying to be noticed by an apple store helper (this was one of those stores without a register counter at all, you get rung up where ever are), I saw the Apple International Power Adapter set. While [...]

Wanna know when Flex 3 will be released

I know, and while I’m not gonna say, I will say that being at 360|Flex Atlanta will be a really good place to find out. Sure there are rumors; Apple will release a new PDA, Yahoo will be bought by Wal-Mart (no not really, but wouldn’t surprise me), etc. but I have it on pretty [...]

Like contests Like sweet prizes

Then head over to the 360|Flex blog, where Tom and I just announced the submission site for our API contest. I won’t prattle on about the guidelines, and such, read the post for those. I will say that we’re hoping the API contest becomes a recurring theme at 360|Flex, taking a small handful of cool [...]

Patents blow

Tom is more anti patent than I am, but as more and more whack ass patent trolls surface, I’m quickly rethinking my position to be patently (pun not intended) anti Patent. I think the idea behind patents is a good and noble one, however the patent office seems to be more and more nothing but [...]

Super Tuesday Tracking

Google and twitter have teamed up to keep us all up to date on Super Tuesday happenings. Google also has some code to put up a gadget to track. (Below). There’s also a cool google map to see what people are saying.    

Copilot free on Weekends!!

I’m a huge Joel Spolsky fan, and after watching Project Aardvark, I started looking at Copilot. Since my mom won’t buy a Mac, and my sister can’t afford one, I’ve had to help solve the typical PEBKAC malware troubles that plague windoze users of their calibre. CoPilot, rocks, the mac client let’s me take control [...]

Look ma, I’m famous!

Well famous may be an over reach, but Dan over at Dzone interviewed me in the context of 360Conferences and 360|Flex. I’m glad he put up with me since I was way late in getting the interview questions back to him. The interview came out great, he did a superb job, making me seem less [...]

Atlanta is cold in January!

Tom and I were in Atlanta this weekend doing our 1 month out onsite for 360|Flex. I’ve never been to Atlanta, so it’s always fun from the perspective of being in a new place. We both Red-eyed it, which, well sucks. But From Denver to ATL, there aren’t a great many options. It actually worked [...]
