May 16, 2008

In a number of posts before I have talked about the plans for a Podcamp Colorado. These plans have morphed and grown to the point where we realized that we were really creating a New Media Conference and associated Film Festival and should call it like it is. That said, this November, November 7-9th we [...]

Technology and Travel

May 14, 2008

While I haven’t traveled that often as of late, I have traveled quite a bit throughout my life. As a child I traveled to Europe and about 15 years ago I traveled frequently for work. However, back then travel and personal technology were not so closely linked. As a child I’d get puzzle books to [...]

Twitter, The Sichuan Quake, and Emergency Response

May 13, 2008

Eric Rice started a thread of discussion on The Sichuan Quake and the Hubris of Twitter Users on his friendfeed. I had more than 255 characters worth of though (or whatever the comment character limit is), so I thought I would blog about it here.http://www.blogger.com/img/gl.link.gif For those not on twitter or not following the twitter/earthquake [...]

MediaCasters.tv

March 22, 2008

Having watched so many events from a distance and wanted to be there I think MediaCasters.tv is an an awesome idea. What is Mediacasters.tv? Well to quote their press release: Live events stimulate conversations, but those offsite can’t really respond until later, when “the moment” has passed. What if you could engage from anywhere right [...]

February 8, 2008

It is Friday, which means it’s a Frozen Pea Friday. In an amazing set of coincidences I was just sitting down to eat some frozen peas (that had been subsequently warmed up) when Chel Pixie asked if I could make a video for the frozen pea fund. If you haven’t made it to the site [...]

Social Connection Across the Virtual/Physical Border

February 5, 2008

What an exciting year this is turning out to be. My official work has begun to pick up, and I’m pushing personal project internally. In the social media/startup/podcasting/tech sphere I’ve started to meet up with people in person. Very exciting and interesting to watch. Online social media is an interesting phenomenon. In a sense it [...]

The Trivial Nature of Life

December 23, 2007

The past couple of weeks I have been amazed at the dynamics of communities within the Social Media Sphere. Both the Frozen Pea Fund and also the nature of debate, such as the debates in Seesmic that have spilled out into blogs has been fascinating to watch. In a sense these things have existed in [...]

Frozen Pea Friday

December 21, 2007

So much to post about and so little time on winter-time Friday’s but before I go, a quick post. Please check out the FrozenPeaFund. This is an incredible example of how our online communities and “tribes” come together and support each other. It is more that talk, it really is connection. More on that later.

Blog Day – Across the Bridge

August 31, 2007

Today Chris Brogan reminded me it was Blog Day. Now I feel a bit silly pointing out new blogs to check out, as I feel that I’m hardly an authority, but I can play too. In looking at my facebook connections (which really represents only a small portion of the circles I am in) I [...]
