Cloud Architecture And Best Of Breed

Cloud Architecture And Best Of Breed

By Krishnan Subramanian on October 10, 2012

As cloud computing becomes all the more pervasive, people are rethinking the idea of buying software and hardware suites in favor of best of breed approach. In a way, cloud architecture makes it easy to avoid the integrated stack lock-in as interoperability through open APIs is taken for granted in most cases. At Boxworks 2012, […]

Promiscuous online culture changing social interactions

Promiscuous online culture changing social interactions

By Dan Morrill on April 30, 2010

If you do not need O’Reilly Radar – you might want to subscribe. This morning O’Reilly Radar was bringing up the idea of how social networking sites like Facebook, MySpace, FriendFeed and others are changing not just how we hire, but how we determine credibility and trustworthiness in the communities we interact with. What is […]

Is this the closest I get to Space?

Is this the closest I get to Space?

By Paul Miller on March 23, 2010

When I was a child, I wanted to be a spaceman. No great surprise there, perhaps, and also no great surprise that I — like so many others — never got to achieve that dream. Still, when the opportunity presented itself to write a space-y piece as my latest contribution over on GigaOM Pro, I jumped at it. It […]

Amazon rolls out new Web Store for Sellers

Amazon rolls out new Web Store for Sellers

By Dan Morrill on March 8, 2010

My first and only experience with Web Store by Amazon was a disaster from my viewpoint. Where I expected tightly coupled information between my Amazon catalog and the Amazon Web Store there was none. Realistically to use the site correctly we were looking at going back and touching every single item in our 12,000 plus […]

Picnik gets acquired by Google

By Dan Morrill on March 1, 2010

In great news for Seattle Startups, Picnik gets picked up by Google in some interesting M&A activity, because everyone is going to be thinking of Flickr and SmugMug being right in the sights of Google.

Seattle Lunch 2 0 – yes it is worth attending

By Dan Morrill on February 25, 2010

Seattle Lunch 2.0  just let out and the one thing I love about startups is that there is a lot of enthusiasm for what they are doing that you just do not see in larger companies. Today I finally made it to a Seattle Lunch 2.0 and got to meet some very incredible people who […]

Regenerated Content Streams and Tuning Out

Regenerated Content Streams and Tuning Out

By Dan Morrill on February 17, 2010

Louis Gray touches on a great point over on his blog today about how information is regenerated not just by the people who follow us, but by the popularity that we carry. I want to focus on one portion of this because it touches back to many of the issues we face not just with […]

Welcome Computer Engineer Barbie

Welcome Computer Engineer Barbie

By Dan Morrill on February 16, 2010

In an idea that is on the order of “about time”, Mattel introduced Computer Engineer Barbie on the 12th of February 2010. Let us hope that this helps solve part of the problem with women and girls going into Computer Science. The problem is solvable, it will just take the concerted efforts of parents and […]

Our future will be more chaotic than dystopian

Our future will be more chaotic than dystopian

By Dan Morrill on February 15, 2010

We need much better logic in terms of how we handle censorship and the influence that platforms have to change how censorship is enforced. There has always been information that people did not want people to know about in one form or another. Fortunately there has always been a way to get communications in and […]

By Dan Morrill on February 2, 2010

Many people spend a lot of time on Facebook, and in many ways, spending time on Facebook is a great social interchange between friends, family, and people you know.

Welcome to the Facebook Market Place

Welcome to the Facebook Market Place

By Dan Morrill on January 26, 2010

If you have not checked out the Facebook Market Place lately – now is probably a good time to do it.
