It's more in the lines of, these are events that are coming up in the following week that will be driving the debate, and this is what's likely to happen at them.

Drew
Most of the people getting this are outside-the-beltway, and not likely to be able to come (even if no fire marshalls existed), so it's more of a it's-what's-happening-kind-of-thing.

Lawrence K.
has entered the room

Alex G.

isen
Hello Larry K
Alex G.

Mar 29
9:15 PM
Drew
isen

Drew
Andrew R.
has entered the room
Alex G.
right got them both thanks to google + marketwire
Drew
why google?
Drew
both on dave's web site
Alex G.
because it's sunday and I'm thinking slowly?
Mar 29
9:20 PM
Drew
well, remember, "google is making us stupid" (says the atlantic)
Mar 29
9:25 PM
Dean L.
are you sure it shouldn't read,"stupid is making us google?"
Dean L.
Hiya Alex
Alex G.
hi Dean! We're in the greenwood suites
Alex G.
cooked ourselves dinner
Dean L.
what time tomorrow morning do the AFI doors open?
Alex G.
agenda says 8 --- isen?
Drew
has left the room
Alex G.
Dean L.
Alex- your resourcefulness is a thing of wonder (I would've said shock & awe, but...)
Alex G.
necessity is the mother of turkey burgers
Dean L.
That F2C link shows a start time, but not a "doors open at" time
Alex G.
Melissa here: But what Alex didn't tell was that he created stove-top brownies!
Alex G.
from a dairy-free egg-free gluten-free mix
Dean L.
ooh, sounds good
Alex G.
and a microwave
Alex G.
A: in addition to the stovetop
Dean L.
we had asparagus & mushrooms, which survived the car ride from Manhattan
John S.
has entered the room
Alex G.
that must have required the latest in cryogenics
Mar 29
9:30 PM
Dean L.
dairy free, egg free -- wow, this is like Kosher for Pesach on the Bizarro planet!
Alex G.
kosher -- and fluffy!
Andrew R.
has left the room
Dean L.
"kosher and fluffy" sounds like a description of my of my late aunt's dog
Dean L.
oops, that would require caps: Kosher and Fluffy
Alex G.
I hope it was tasty
Alex G.
:-)
Dean L.
woof
Alex G.
melissa has dickens on. tough stuff!
Mar 29
9:35 PM
Alex G.
BTW, I never figured out whether this was a clarion call for neutrality in the clud
Lynn H.
has entered the room
Alex G.
cloud or a publicity stunt
Alex G.
Alex G.
and also BTW, you know CTIA is happening in DC this week?
Dean L.
I thought CTIA was in Vegas this week
Alex G.
sorry I meant NCTA
Mar 29
9:40 PM
Dean L.
ah, right
Dean L.
The cloud brouhaha is not a publicity stunt. rather, it is an outbreak of righteousness and righteous indignity, all coming to a tempest in what had been one communal teapot, now splintering off into sect teapots.
Dean L.
I see them as a group of well intended people who do not play well with others, even others of similar interests -- it seems to be a case of, "agree with everything I say, or the hell with you" among people who otherwise are pretty much aligned in focus. But when they're arguing over word usage such as "manifesto" you know things are out of hand, perhaps beyond repair.
Alex G.
Someday I'll know what he meant when he twitted
Alex G.
"I didn't invent the backroom deal. As Ice T famously said, Don't Hate The Playa, Hate The Game."
Dean L.
I ignore the tweets -- these verbose types are terrible at pithy
John S.
has left the room
Alex G.
so david i -- when do the afi silver doors open?
Mar 29
9:45 PM
Dean L.
and the emails from a single day on that cloud forum could fill a terabyte drive
Alex G.
dean, it was quite an impressive amount of noise
Alex G.
over a very short period of time
Alex G.
also found a rosicrucian manifesto on scribd for a friend but that's OT
Dean L.
abundant, impressive, argumentative. . .
Dean L.
heh
Alex G.
OTOH, got to see benioff in person at the start of last week
Alex G.
and if he really does that performance in 80 cities worldwide every year
Alex G.
he's earning that CEO salary
Dean L.
we overlap in many of these commons
Lynn H.
hiya. david send out an email earlier in the week that said 7:30 breakfast, 8:30 start
Alex G.
which reminds me -- is anyone worrying about "brand search engines" that store every mention of the brand in the corporate e-mail servers?
Dean L.
THANK YOU, LYNN!!!
Alex G.
thanks Lynn
Alex G.
interwoven, salesforce twitter facebook, etc
Dean L.
you mean Google, and all the search bots that use Google's engine?
Alex G.
no I mean private search engines building corporate databases
Dean L.
not so much worrying about it as trying to avoid any activity in 'em
Alex G.
heh
Alex G.
stepping away for a mo
