Bob Lory rewrites Murphy's Law for these magical, corporate times: "In any priority strategic or tactical endeavor--albeit preceded by the most intensive environmental scanning and related potential problem analysis--anomalies, either extrinsic or intrinsic to the system, will occur to cause significant aberration direction-wise to the thrust of key activities in a manner that in retrospect will be viewed as unfortunate time-wise and disappointingly sub-optimal results-wise."2006-08-07T20:14:04Z
I've been testing out Skype this morning to sort out a few administrative things - calling the tax office, checking some hotels - it's a bit shaky (especially when calling a mobile), but it's really good. My VoIP Voice phone (the V654SKAM) really works pretty well. The only thing that would make it better - the option to have it pause iTunes or other music or media players when a call becomes active.2006-08-07T12:28:55Z
Ian has posted the dates for BarCamp London - September the 2nd and 3rd. Be careful - PBwiki's "edit lock" functionality really sucks. 2006-08-07T12:26:31Z
A new Shiira 2.0 beta preview thingy. It's shockingly cool. Like with Japanese gadgets, it's the things which, in five years time, everyone's going to be excited about but you get to play with it now. 2006-08-07T09:45:45Z
If you do one thing today, it's going and listening to the latest Morning Coffee Notes. Why? Well, it's got Dave Winer, Doc Searls, Jason Calacanis, Steve Gillmor and my boss, Mike Kowalchik. It's 57:52 and 6.7Mb. Enjoy.
I've got my Bloglines setup working pretty good, as this appeared first in the morning (Doc linked to it). Scoble isn't linking. I'll take the risk.
I also write for the Citizendium, an online encyclopedia project. If you know about stuff, you should join in. I occasionally produce audio recordings for The Pod Delusion.
