The Web as (My) Operating System

November 11, 2006

It was perhaps more than a little strange to read Scott Karp’s epitaph of the Web 2.0 Summit today, in particular his description of Ray Ozzie’s presentation, in which Ozzie apparently argued “that the web as operating system is not (yet) a panacea — there are some things that offline local client applications still do […]

Joel on Consulting

Joel has a nice rant on consulting to BigAnything. And yes, actually, law is pretty much the same.

Financing Web 2.0 on the Cheap

November 9, 2006

The NYT covers the ground on the by now often-told story of the decreasing cost of starting up on the Web, and how VCs are adapting to new realities. Notable fact: increasingly, the MSM is going to visible bloggers to report on these stories. Time after time, it’s the Kedroskys and Batelles of the world […]

Lieberman’s Revenge, Redux

November 9, 2006

With George Allen’s concession, the Democrats will now have control of the Senate as well as the House. And I expect Joe Lieberman will make them pay for every square inch of it.

Legal Web Site Terms of Use

November 9, 2006

Simon Fodden has a bit of sport over at Slaw with the BLG website’s terms of use. BLG’s terms weigh in at a burly 3,586 words, it turns out, and Simon isn’t loving all of them. Mine, I’m happy (and a little relieved) to say, are a little shorter.

General Counsel – Tucows (Redux)

November 9, 2006

The Tucows General Counsel position that I blogged a little while ago is (surprisingly) still available. And if it’s caught the attention of Denise Howell, certifiably one of the coolest geek lawyers around, perhaps it ought to catch yours too. The ad for the position is in the left column of the main page of […]

Lieberman’s Revenge?

November 8, 2006

One has to wonder, as the final tally on the U.S. Senate looks to be close to the 1 seat majority the Democrats need to take both branches of Congress, what’s next for Joe Lieberman. Abandoned by the Democrats, he’s hung on to his seat in the face of a fierce challenge from Ned Lamont, […]

Startup Camp Toronto

November 8, 2006

Many of us involved in early-stage tech here in Toronto have watched the news of Startup Camp with a lot of interest. I’ve lost count of the number of times I’ve had the “Wouldn’t it be great if there were something like that in Toronto …” conversation, or have read blog posts hoping for the […]
