Geek Dinner This Thursday
After this week's live show, we're gonna be gathering down the street at Blu Water (Leschi) at 10pm – so it's more like a Geek Midnight Snack. There's a bar and a restaurant that's open 'til 1AM, but no Wi-Fi. Bring your camera, cards, and make reservations ASAP so that they're not overwhelmed and understaffed. [...]
Blog Business Summit: Friendly Face at Microsoft
We all know and love Robert, but today he gave his first Keynote speech. Even if he was giving a “regular ol’ speech,” I’d still be very proud of him. Why? Because he’s himself, and not afraid to be himself. Speaking to people who typically have to hide behind the corporate veil, Robert did a [...]
Blog Business Summit: Helping Businesses

That is to say, how many people relish the opportunities that come from interpersonal relationships? Anil Dash is one of those people. One of the first employees of the now-seventy-strong Six Apart, he’s now guiding [...]

Right now, I'm out of my chair and [...]
Blog Business Summit: Pitching the Executive
Mitch Ratcliffe is a name that’s known throughout the tech world – for good reason. He writes for Red Herring and has been fueling conversation since the dawn of time (or, at least, the early ’90s). During my energetic presentation this morning, which Marc Canter began with a bang, Mitch pitched a very important angle [...]

Here’s Halley Suitt, giving a qualified perspective of the entire event. Not only does she do Tarot readings, but she predicts the future with her short stories for the Harvard [...]

Scoble's Birthday Video
Happy Birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy birthday dear ROBERT – happy birthday to you! Birthday parties are fun, although as you get older, they become a lot less colorful. We celebrated last night with cake and cheese – but no cheesecake, oddly enough? I didn't see any ice cream either, but the [...]
