Canada 2.0

Mena suggests that moving to Canada 2.0 won't require a van or cardboard boxes. I'm in.

    Good call Jason.

    Although i'm thinking that the time is right for Southern and Northern Californians to put aside their rivalry and do what we've joked about for years--secede from the rest of the USA. Or we can just not share our produce, movies or technology until the red states get their heads screwed back on straight. And that goes double for Ohio.

    Here's a handy expat guide I ran across, just in case you decide to head north to the land of ice, moose, and Flickr. In the meantime, I'm following your lead and nursing my election loser denial with pop rocks AND creamsciles. ;-) ;-)

    Cheers!

    Did John Kerry really bust the DNC?

    When you get to Canada - look me up; this is a public offer for a couple of *real* Canadian Beers. On me, in exchange for insight into what makes the Googleplex, Larry and S tick. ;)

In the interest of full disclosure

Image
Howdy sports fans - I have some non-scandalous confessions and disclosures to make. I hope this post won't get too long but when you are weeks behind in posting then there's nothing like a lightning round post like this one. First up, the geeky stuff:I accepted an offer to join the RSS Advisory Board two weeks ago. I know what you are asking yourselves, 'Can I get a Friends and Family discount on angle brackets and rel tags?' Some of you might find my joining the board as odd since I'm one of the core folks to start the Atom initiative. However, Atom was originally started to help foster a universal publishing protocol in addition to it's better known feed format. I'm very proud of both and see a future where RSS is improved as a result of Atom.As a decidedly pro-Atom member of the board, I should mention that I designed (and pay the bandwidth bill) for atomenabled.org. I also designed the Atom logo and the associated buttons and badges currently appearing …

Planning ahead for Macworld SF 5th Annual blogger lunch and schmoozefest

Image
I took over organizing the Macworld SF bloggers lunch after Mr. Barrett stopped making the trek out four years ago. That means that we are looking at the fifth year of the annual lunch and should probably have our act together this year and plan way ahead so we can monetize world-class web-readiness or something. In any case, the lunch will be on January 10, 2006 at a time and meeting place to be decided shortly depending on interest (feel free to use the comments here to hash it out if you like). You don't need to be attending the conference to come out to lunch, but if you would like to go to the show too you can grab a free Macworld Expo Pass from the generous folks at Other World Computing. You can even register online. The nicest thing about this lunch - low formality and purpose, high on chocolate chip cookies and goofing off. I encourage you to let me know if you are planning on attending and spread the word. Last year we had a great time and I expect this year to be even b…

Plinky

Image
Apart from making with the jokes on Twitter, I have been very busy starting a new company, Plinky, Inc.. In short, Plinky will be focused on helping people have fun while creating great content.I've had an idea for this new web application for a long time and thought about incubating it under the banner of The Secret Agency which I created last fall to do such things. A funny thing happened on the way to the incubator idea though, what happens if one of the ideas consumes you and seems like it really has legs? After iterating since last fall with my friend Sim Simeonov the idea for Plinky was consuming me and I decided to raise some seed funding to help build it out as a company focused on one product. I'm accepting a round of financing from the nice folks at Polaris Ventures in Boston as well as some smart angels (to be announced at a later date). When we are done with the round we should be at about $1.5M raised to help propel us.We have a small team of web developers and wi…
