Gnomedex update: John C Dvorak is hilarious. I've gotten some video footage I hope to edit on various topics. Then I just need to record a commentary and sell the DVDs before uploading them to Kazaa to complete the cycle.
It's like listening to the Dennis Leary of technology. Hilarious venom with some legitimate insights.
On a cat "writing" a blog and talking of "sweetness in the air": "It's a cat! It's looking for a rotting mouse!"
Plus he enjoys making fun of the Maccers, which earns points in my book. ;) |

Gnomedex update: Tim O'Reilly just spoke on open source and how the applications of the future are Internet apps, not client software. 100% agreed - online applications keep the latest version and features in the end-users hands while also having a built-in antipiracy method.
Now John C. Dvorak is giving his speech on computing trends. He just had some hilarious remarks on how every restaurant in Des Moines appear to be pizza chains, and I guess he also went to Adventureland today as he loves wooden rollercoasters. Interesting, funny, engaging speaker. |

Up way too late last night...and I wonder if I'll be up even later tonight?
Jim Louderback is talking right now about building a home theater PC. I've thought of doing one for some time but have never gotten around to it. Maybe with one of these mini-shuttle cases... |

Kevin Unangst from Microsoft is now speaking on what MS is doing for media convergence. An interesting point he brought up about MS and DRM (Digital Rights Management) - Microsoft doesn't create the rules when it comes to DRM and the ability to use and share music. Instead, they're putting the *ability* for rules to be assigned by the content owner, who can then decide to make them freely available, burnable to CD, or whatever. It is an interesting point. |
