Pownce Launch Party

January 19, 2008 – 2:45 pm

Pownce is not Twitter. It’s not even close. I use them for completely different things. Twitter is much simpler. It asks, “What are you doing?”
Leah Culver’s startup takes that to the next level. I believe the main purpose of Pownce is to share media with your friends. You can easily send a link, video, photo, [...]

Digg the candidates

November 20, 2007 – 8:28 pm

Daniel posted this today, and I thought I would share it with you. Digg’s audience is stereotyped as being a bunch of 13-year-old kids that just like to talk shit. Well, I don’t think that’s their core audience. It will be interesting to see who the tech community diggs. I will be checkin this page [...]

Highlights from WordCamp 2007

July 23, 2007 – 2:07 am

Unconferencing is one of the reasons I moved to San Francisco. They are free, geek-infested, and very enlightening. The open source software community is probably my favorite group of folks to hang out with here.
I spent my whole day at WordCamp 2007, hosted at the Swedish American Hall in downtown SF.

The event was [...]

Pownce on this

June 29, 2007 – 2:06 am

Digg’s Kevin Rose has finally unveiled his secret project, and as you’d expect, it’s spelled wrong.

168 hours without Internet

May 30, 2007 – 11:46 pm

That’s right, one week. I used to say that I couldn’t last 24 hours, but when you drive 2,700 miles across the country, you are bound to spend some time offline.
In that time span, you can miss a lot of stuff.
For instance, Facebook just got a lot crazier. You can use their open API [...]
