Tragedy is never welcome. It was only 7 months ago today that my friend and fellow blogger, Marc Orchant, passed away suddenly in his home office. That rocked the entire tech space, as it should have. This hits closer to home, for me, because it’s in Washington, and more specifically Adams Morgan where I spend a good deal of time.

SxSW vs. CxCC

by shaydc on March 8, 2008 · 10 comments

So have any of you noticed a recent trend on Twitter? 
It seems that our ultra-friendly, tech community has temporarily (well, hopefully temporarily) divided.  We are now those at SxSW and those NOT at SxSW.  I, unfortunately, fall in the NOT at SxSW camp.  I have requested that SxSW folks start their tweets with “SxSW hi” [...]

Thanks, Geoff. You’ve come a long way, grasshopper. ;-)
Of note on this list - read: bloggers I do actively read, although I’ve read all of them at one time or another - are Jim long at Verge New Media, BlogWrite for CEOs by Debbie Weil and [...]

I’m a pretty well known guy. I like that. It’s odd, at times, particularly at conferences or meetups where people I don’t know introduce themselves, “Hey, aren’t you that Technosailor guy?” Despite being known in tech and the social media scene, I never claimed to be PR-oriented, despite Geoff Livingstone calling this blog the top [...]

I moved from a single family home to a two bedroom apartment this weekend. Minus the headache of pulling that off, I found myself 20 minutes farther away from my already sitant workplace. Before, I lived right off I-95 and could get to my workplace in D.C. (Northwest) in an hour and ten minutes, give [...]
