He since left a lot of business-only interests and took a cabinet-level central government position (chair of the Unique Identification Authority of India) as a person who would head the design, implementation, and regulation of [...]

Seattle InfoCamp was on October 8 and 9 and I went both days. I learned a lot and consumed new ideas. I love the format of this “unconference” – how it works is that they only schedule keynote speakers and everyone attends their talks, and then on the day of the event anyone who wants [...]

Matt looked like a typical America who, as Nandan would say, gave very little attention to his personal appearance other than hygiene. About 40 people [...]

I went to Infocamp at Seattle University on Saturday and Sunday October 2-3. I saw a sign or something about this conference – I am not sure what I saw, but I had never heard of it. It was $50 for two days and the website seemed to have a lot of community input on [...]

I do not own much of value other than than some computer files. I have gone far too long without having those sensibly organized online.

I have been writing content for the three websites I made. It is tiresome and stressful and takes a long time. I feel a lot of relief and pleasure at seeing what is already done, though. All three are live, but none of them is complete. I hope to have them all as complete as [...]
