• SIP and Mobile Services

    Bill brought up some excellent topics at his presentation at BAMF this weekend. The one that struck me the most was his mention of SIP as a major item for future development of mobile applications. Given that right before the meeting I was blogging that I wanted “a service that... [Read More]
  • First BAMF Meeting Tomorrow

    Tomorrow is the first meeting of BAMF. Unfortunately we ended up needing to collect some money to cover the space. Michael O’Rourke was very generous in offering their space at Dimension 7 and we just need to cover the costs of setting the place up, cleaning up after it’s done,... [Read More]

  • BlogOn Expectations

    BlogOn was yesterday, and I’ve let the issues percolate for a while before trying to write up what I took out of yesterday’s conference.

  • BlogOn Commentary

    The first couple of sessions were a bit of a let down actually. There wasn’t much being talked about that stood outside of the normal questions. I can excuse that however. This is “the business of social media”, and it does seem like a much more business focused group than... [Read More]
