Web 2.0 Summit: Launch Pad

Lauchpad was a quickfire product launch pitch session consisting of 13 produces each getting a 5 minute pitch. The lucky 13 were apparently whittled down from around 150 applicants and hence were all of high quality.

I haven't got time to review them all, so please go and see for yourself:

  1. In the Chair - Online music tutorial/practice system
  2. Instructables - A Make-esque system for sharing how to instructions
  3. Klostu - A system for uniting the boardscape (blogosphere for message boards)
  4. Hummingbird from Sharpcast - An online/offline bridge for syncing document states across platforms
  5. Stikkit - Quick note system with context resolution
  6. TURN - Worlds first automatic targeted ad network system
  7. Sphere - Blog search system with context querying
  8. Omnidrive - Desktop/Online/Cross platform data syncing system
  9. Adify - Platform to create vertical ad networks
  10. 3b - 3D imersive environment for navigating web pages
  11. Odesk - Trust and reputation based staffing and recruitment system - on demand global workforce
  12. Venyo - Reputation management system
  13. Timebridge - Automated meeting scheduling resolution plugin for outlook

(edit - Now with working links)

Starting afresh

So, this blog seems somewhat sparse for 2010, thats the effect of a mixture my focus being elsewhere and the blogger service altering its range of publishing options and me only just getting around to switching. The blog has now moved to techiedog.blogspot.com . Still ... onwards and upwards.

Winter Wonderland

The first snow of the season fell here yesterday afternoon. So, I know I'm a 'grown up', but I can't help but get excited by such things. My Dad always said that people loose the wonder and excitement of snow fall once they have to start commuting to work. I'm lucky, if I look at the window and the roads are impassable, I don't have to bother heading off to the office. Thanks to the technology of my trade home working is habitual anyway. Is technology responsible for allowing me to keep a sense of wonder, and enjoy the vagaries of mother nature for what she is, rather than seeing her meteorological mood swings only in terms the effect of my daily grind. Maybe, or maybe I'm just an entry level weather geek! Whatever, come lunchtime I'm off to take Monty the dog out to play in the snow!
