The Pulse of Open Source
I launched a new website last week entitled The Pulse of Open Source. You can read more about this project by reading my post on the 451 CAOS Theory blog.
Back from Napa
I’m back home from Open Source Think Tank 2008 in Napa, California. The event was great. As it ran through Saturday, I am feeling a bit cheated out a weekend right now - lots to do in just 24 hours before the work week starts up again.
Off to Las Vegas
I’m headed to Las Vegas for the next four days for two conferences - the Software Business Transformation Summit and JBoss World. Coincidentally, the events occur the same week only a few casinos apart - the Rio and the Mirage. I am giving a talk and moderating a panel at both conferences - four individual […]
Even Lawrence Lessig Gets the Blues
I was searching for an airplane power adapter to use with my MacBook Pro, and lo and behold, I ran across this discussion thread on the Apple Support Discussions - “the problem with airplanes and the MBP“. Dr. Lessig, open source visionary and all-around cool guy is having the same problem as I. I’m telling […]
What exactly am I doing here?!
This image speaks for itself. You may need to click the image to get the full effect. It’s April in Dallas, Texas, and it’s !@#$!@# 100 degrees outside today. This is insane. The only thing that’s keeping me sane is that I have the air conditioning in my house set to 68 degrees.
I include Portland […]

Open Source Panel at Bar Camp Austin
I moderated an open source panel at Bar Camp Austin last night. This turned out extremely well, and several people commented to me afterwards that it was the best panel they had seen all-day (compared to SXSWi). Quite a compliment for the panel.
Panels have not traditionally been part of BarCamp, as far as I […]
Live from the Bar Camp Austin Pre-Party
The Bar Camp Austin Pre-Party was a huge success. At peak, we had 60 people in attendance (and over 100 through the doors). I was able to spend time with the WordPress development team (Matt, Rob, Andy, etc.), Tantek from Technorati, Decibel from PostgreSQL, Chris from Flock, Tara from Riya, whurley from Qlusters (and […]
Bar Camp Austin on Saturday
If you are planing to be in Austin for SXSW Interactive on Saturday, or happen to live in the area, I highly recommend that you attend Bar Camp Austin. I have been helping William Hurley (whurley) with the event.
What is Bar Camp? It’s a FREE, ad-hoc un-conference born from the desire for people to share […]
