Carpe Diem
It seems that Ray Ozzie has pulled his Innovation is the vehicle: drivers wanted. Pity. It was well written and made me think.
Meanwhile, Brad Wilson obsesses over crossword puzzles. I spend the morning rewriting an Axis class for performance. And David Watson obsesses over obsessing, triggered in part by Ray Ozzie's story, completing the somewhat strange loop and tangled hierarchies.
We all are unique in how we chose to invest our time. Sometimes this is in ways that others consider frivilous or pointless. Be that as it may, sometimes it is the most frivilous or pointless of activities that produce the greatest surprises. It certainly has for me. I now see Miguel fairly regularly (I'd point to the pictures he took at OSCON, but as near as I can tell he hasn't posted them yet). The conference that Google selected for me? I'm the keynote at the next one. Mark and I not only did meet, but this has blossomed into the RTP Bloggers Club.
I won't comment further on the original article unless Ray choses to resurrect it.
