The Future Has No Log In Button
Since last week’s Kynetx Impact Conference I have gained an entirely new vision for the open web. I now foresee a web which the user completely controls, lives in the browser, syncs with the cloud, and has no boundaries. This new web completely makes the entire Social and Real-time paradigms miniscule in terms of significance. […]
Read more...Twitter – TIMTOWTDI
I love Twitter for its variety. In many ways it’s a lot like my favorite programming language Perl, whose mantra is “There is more than one way to do it.” Some people choose the messy, spaghetti code way, while others choose nicely formatted, object-oriented way, even taking it to the extent of protecting it further […]

Yesterday Robert Scoble wrote a critical post claiming Chris Brogan was using Twitter wrong, stating Chris isn’t separating his content on Twitter well enough. As one who had to create multiple Twitter accounts to separate out my activity, I am one of the first to support this method. As it stands though, even I will […]

I’m following the stories of the Google Chrome OS release today and am a bit concerned about some of the claims that are being made. Mashable even goes to the extent of predicting Google is going to “destroy the desktop” with it. Google is banking on the fact that many users use their computers solely […]

Okay, maybe it’s not that cut and dry (the earth hits meteors all the time – they just disintegrate before hitting ground). Tonight about half of all my Utah friends all at one time reported a light, as bright as day, ascend in a blue-green aura from East to West. For some reason I missed […]

On Thursday morning I’m doing a free webcast for Safari Books Online (moderated by OReilly’s Laurel Ackerman) in which I’m going to go into further detail than I have before on how to get started building Facebook apps. I’ll take you from start to finish, focusing this time on more hands-on coding, and less introduction […]

I love new music. When I was younger I would spend my evenings and weekends surfing the used CD stores finding that rare track or remix no one had heard before. I would spend hours at Blockbuster Music (remember them?) previewing every CD I could to find the perfect album or single. Maybe it’s a […]

I’m opening the books tonight on my company, SocialToo. I’ll be presenting tonight at Launchup, an event compared to be a “community barn raising for entrepreneurs”. The event happens every couple months and has featured such Utah companies as TodaysMama (whom I am an Advisor) and Entice Labs. The idea is to allow each company […]
