Voip, Blogs and Retinal Blogging
Dave Carter · CTO & VP Strategy, iUpload · Data Management
My optometrist was chatting while examining my eyes and of course I worked in some blogging conversation.

Of course the words sound silly enough when you are saying them to a corporate audience, but making them verbs, or compound words makes it worse. I don't have to say I'm part of the VOIP-O-SPHERE do I?

The Development Abstraction Layer
Joel Spolsky · CEO, Fog Creek Software · Software Development
A young man comes to town. He is reasonably good looking, has a little money in his pocket. He finds it easy to talk to women. He doesn't speak much about his past, but it is clear that he spent a lot of time in a soulless big company.

Miko Matsumura · VP, Marketing, & Technology Standards, Infravio · soa blueprints / soa products / soa registries and repositories / soa thoughts
Steve Jones, who I’ve had a steak pie with, is a terrific fellow. (Thought that was a nice opening sentence). Don’t worry, there’s no “however”. He’s cool. Anyhow he’s posted on his blog about how Metadata isn’t Magic. I like this post a lot, very true. I like the exploration of the boundaries of what makes metadata...
