• Unbagging The Cat

    Posted on October 3, 2005

    We took the wraps off our secret project this evening. I didn’t want to post anything until we actually had information to make public for fear of attracting more negative attention. It’s been hard to keep quiet. It’s a fantastic team and we’ve all been fired up about what we’re... [Read More]

    I’m planning to head up to the city tomorrow to meet up with some folks in town for CTIA San Francisco, and Niall pointed out that Tag Tuesday is tomorrow too. I haven’t been out and about all that much lately, so I’m hoping to catch up with a whole... [Read More]

  • Oral History of Silicon Valley

    Posted on September 20, 2005

    I listened to John Markoff’s talk from the SDForum while I was wandering around, and decided that it was too good of a collection of references about Silicon Valley not to have my own pointers online. I’ll have to pick up the book also, sounds like it’ll be great. Meantime,... [Read More]

  • Audio Commentary

    Posted on September 15, 2005

    Russ pasted a link t o a description of watching The Simpsons with audio descriptions on. I really really wish those videos were retrievable right now.

    The first meeting of the Search SIG from SDForum was last night. The new forum is run by Dave McClure and Jeff Clavier. They did a great job on this first event, and I’m really looking forward to our combined Search SIG and Mobile Monday event happening next month. I... [Read More]

  • Power Outage

    Posted on September 12, 2005

    I was going to post earlier, but apparently a lot of Los Angeles was without power today and my hosting provider was in an affected area. I realized my mail client was complaining about dropped connections, so I checked and my site was down, so then I went to file... [Read More]
