RE: my last post on great information brokers
A quick snippet of someone whose presentation gave me some awesome information to walk away with and feel super smart (therefore, Khoi Vinh rocks ’cause he’s brilliant and he presented the information in a way I can use it to feel smart):
“Most features are for experts, but most [...]

My brilliant public speaking coach, Lura, recently told me:
“It’s not what you say, it’s how you make people feel.”
She didn’t mean that my presentations should be without good content…quite the opposite. If I had good content that delivered awesome information and made people feel like they’ve learnt something and delivered this content in a way [...]

Okay Marty, even though we are traveling and all, I’ll play along. This particular meme is all about how we consume media, which may be useful to people:

The browser I use primarily is Camino - mostly for the speed and the lack of crashing. If there are cool Firefox extensions I want to give [...]

If I haven’t been answering my email it’s because I’m backlogged about 500 messages right now (that’s with filters ON)…and will be dedicating my first few days back in SF to getting back to everyone. If it’s urgent, Twitter me.

Our amazing friends at FaberNovel always make plenty of time to show us fantastic restaurants, amazing sights and make [...]

I’m currently at the Future of Web Apps in London…great show btw! I think it’s even better than the one in San Francisco (and I really enjoyed that one). Good job, team Carson Systems! My talk went well and several people who I really admire gave me good reviews. I think my ‘meat and potatoes’ [...]

[I love flickr by Ansy on Flickr]
We all have apps and products we use everyday. Some we probably couldn’t live without, in fact. Those, for me, represent all of the Google properties they have me nicely tied into. I tried to resist, but they are so darned useful! I also use stuff like Blinksale and [...]

So, first of all, I took a general poll to ask 25 people I know, who are online and enjoy the social networking space (i.e. Web 2.0) “Which Companies/Apps have Mojo?” I got back a solid list of 10 (in no particular order):
Flickr
Threadless
Wordpress
Twitter
Pandora
Basecamp
YouTube
DIGG
Meebo
Upcoming
There were tonnes more mentioned, but those came up the most of all [...]

Thanks to Noah for a great day at CommunityNext yesterday. For a “kid” (from my perspective, because I met him a couple of years back when he was still in college, I believe), he did a pretty decent job of putting on a conference in a short amount of time. Everything seemed to go smoothly [...]

…in the mondo-interesting and very fired up comment section of my last couple of posts.
Poor, but incredibly real exuses: I’m in the midst of prepping for a couple of summit-type events at Citizen Space (private,), my talk on Saturday at CommunityNext at Stanford, another great fabulous session of Net Tuesday at Citizen Space, Ma.gnolia’s [...]
