- Memo to Bill Gates
- Bill -I know you don't read Dear Bill memos in the media as a rule of thumb, which is why the last time I wrote one of these it was addressed to Steve Ballmer, not you. Then the subject was RSS, and the need to embrace it. Whether you heard...

- Now that we've got your attention
- I was in a conversation last night where the subject turned to Office and whether it's dead or not. You know, the good old Notes is Dead micromeme that I pushed out into the world way back when Ray Ozzie was not the Prince of Redmond. Back before Ray rewrote...

- Peace with honor
- Dan Farber thinks I'm being too cryptic. He wants me to weigh in on the Microsoft announcements of today. My sense is that I've talked almost of nothing else for months now, and have mostly been ridiculed for anticipating what in fact is coming true. Namely: Jim...

- Dog Days
- Dan Farber wrote the most frustrating post today. I'm not pointing at it, nosiree. The nerve of him to wrap all of our disruptive energy up into a nice neat ball and tie a bow around it: what do you think? Reminds me of the Times article about...

- Microsoft and Google stalk the Internet operating system
- Microsoft is fighting on multiple fronts in its 100-year technology war. Acknowledged, Microsoft has notched just 35 years, but the company is good for another 65 if it can recruit a few more generations of Bill Gates generals to lead the charge. And make no mistake, dominating markets is what...

- Mike Arrington missed the Gillmor Gang taping today, even though he changed his travel arrangements to be there.

But I don't forgive Robert Scoble for not inviting me, or Waggener Edstrom either.Let me...

- As Mike Vizard calls it at the end of today's AttentionTech with Barb Darrow, whether it's Office Live or Office Dead is for the jury, I mean the audience, to decide. That's because the reboot here is about the users being in charge. For me, the interesting things about yesterday's...
