I’m at the Fox Theatre in my hometown of Atlanta today checking out the Adobe AIR Bus Tour Summer 07. It’s nice to be at the first event nationwide. I’m attending at the behest of a friend who thinks it going to be the "next big thing." I’m skeptical. I fear yet another proprietary attempt …
Microsoft Visual Mashup Creator Express, May 2007 Community Tech Preview Internet Edition
You gotta love that some at Microsoft actually have a sense of humor! From the PopFly FAQ (emphasis mine): Why did you call it Popfly? Well, left to our own devices we would have called it "Microsoft Visual Mashup Creator Express, May 2007 Community Tech Preview Internet Edition," but instead we asked some folks for …
Business Cards, Photos, and Personal URLs
Wow! It’s taken me a day to get over the exhaustion of Podcamp Atlanta 2007. Kudos to Amber, Rusty, and Penny and everyone else involved for pulling off such a great event. So I sit down and sort through all the new business cards I collected, and it occurs to me that I can’t remember …

Live Pictures from Podcamp Atlanta 2007
I’m definitely not a real-time blogger, but I can take pictures. It’s actually very cool as people are taking pictures and uploading them as the conference is running and they are showing them on the overhead from time to time. Here you can see my Podcamp Atlanta 2007 pictures on Flickr. And you can see …

I’m going to Podcamp Atlanta!
Well, yes as I’ve already said, I’m not a super-timely blogger. I should have blogged this long ago, but ah well. Anyway, Amber Rhea of The Georgia Podcast Network organized a Podcamp here in Atlanta for this weekend March 16-18 2007 at Emory University. An as of yesterday when I asked, Amber said that she …
Energy in Atlanta: Finally at SoCon07!
I’ve never really blogged before about Atlanta because (except for this) I’ve never felt there was much interesting happening here, at least not from the perspective of things that interest me to blog about. But that’s finally changing! I’ve been in Atlanta for most of my life, and my professional career has spanned exactly 20 …
Mike Gunderloy gets fed up with Microsoft
A Fresh Cup Ok, for those who have been keeping up with Mike Gunderloy this is old news but I just ran across it. Mike is one of the most prolific writer/developers I know and one of those rare breed that can evidently learn new technologies in no time flat. Mike has been working with …

ASPnix adds ISAPI Rewrite – Finally!
Back in July of 2006 someone asked on the forum for ASPnix, the web host that specializes in CommunityServer, to add ISAPI Rewrite to their servers so that customers can clean up their URLs. Seven people including myself chimed in asked for it. Over the past eight months, little was said by ASPnix except by …
Buzzwords
They say people can’t understand an abstract concept unless they have language to describe it. For example, because Tahitians don’t have a word for sadness they think of sadness as they would a physical illness. As we are immersed in a world of rapid change we need many new words to describe previously unidentified concepts. …
