You can’t handle the truth job! Had a 2nd interview yesterday morning, and just got another request for an interview at a different company a couple hours ago. They are both really good companies. It’s kind of interesting seeing inquiries come in bunches, but they’re really good jobs and I’m excited! http://www.getsch.net/resume/ I’ll write more when [...]

I’ve heard these words a lot lately. In the recent email from Steve Balmer, those words are firmly embraced. The email also boldly talks about change, and risk. The changes are dramatic. And with significant change comes more than a little risk. After all, these are some of the best-known and most-used products on the [...]

Doc Searls writes a little about his thoughts on home schooling. Personally, I have most often found home schooled kids to pretty much all be smarter. I’ve also found home schooled kids to pretty much all be a bit mal-adjusted socially or psychologically. That doesn’t mean that other, non-home schooled kids don’t also have similar [...]

This is what most people probably think my “office” is like. It’s not my office. It’s not my video. It’s not my crib. And, I don’t know this person. But the video is cool. It’s a parody of this one. Now get outa here!

Om Malik talks about content aggregation and social media. I think his ideas about the large networks using aggregation as a revenue stream do make a lot of sense. I think the direction Om’s post took at the end is wrong. Time is not the biggest argument for hyper aggregation. Laziness is the biggest argument. [...]

unforgivable manifesto [...] Does it take 500 words to change things? Probably not. It probably takes less than a hundred, plus a secret ingredient. The secret ingredient is your desire to actually do something about it. To take action, to believe that it’s worthwhile, to confront what feels like a risk but really isn’t. The [...]
