With The Band

Sorry for the week delay… hard to post when you’re in the middle of a mountain (literally).
WidgetDevCamp was awesome, thanks to everyone, especially Peter Corbett and Justin Thorp.
Here are my slides:

I gave a presentation about Facebook development, and afterwards they asked to actually see an application being developed, so […]

Let’s pretend for a second that the writers weren’t on strike, and we had decent TV on.
Watching TV is enjoyable, right?
It’s also fun to watch it with others. In college, we’d always get together to watch the latest episode, talk about it, etc. A shared experience is always better than sitting alone on your couch. […]

I’ll be at WidgetDevCamp this weekend.
I’ve planned to talk about developing Facebook applications and how they “work”, with a particular spin on developing widgets. I may also be collaborating with one or two other people on some other topics - we’ll see how that plays out.
I’ll post slides after.
If you are there, say hi.

362 days, 6 hours, 41 minutes.
In 362 days, we’re going to have a new president. We’re mired right now with candidates of both parties yammering about their platforms, attacking each other (since when did being called a Muslim get considered an insult?), and telling us what we think is important.
But what do you think is […]

I love interactive sites pertaining to TV shows or movies.
LOST:http://www.flyoceanicair.com/http://www.find815.comReadWriteWeb talks about it.
When will campaigns like this become part of the experience, and not just a promotion for the show?
The first one I can remember is for Starship Troopers. They had a great game that replicated the style of the movie and built up […]

Wish I was there.

Nick O’Neill of AllFacebook just pointed out that you can now separate all your Facebook friends out into groups. It can be used to send out mass messages and event invitations.
But….
I think they are missing the main point of segmenting your friends: privacy. In my mind, the whole reason for being able to put people […]

As I mentioned in a previous post, new avenues of communication complement, not replace, older methods of communication. There are a ton of ways to get in touch with me. How do you choose which one to contact for each person?
My idea? Create a system where you can sign up for a special e-mail address […]

I’m not a networker. I’ll give you a second to get over the shock.
I’ve always operated under the impression that in the technical world, doing great work far outweighs who you know and who knows you, and that “networking” is left to the business types. In the corporate world, this holds true. You do good […]

I’ve been using Twitter for a week now. Here’s my account.

I held off on joining it for so long because I thought it was the same as IM. It has the same interface (short text messages), but is completely different.
The API opens up a lot of possibilities. Plus it’s a free SMS gateway. I have […]
