  • Blogging in Boxers Interview

    No, I’m not an exhibitionist. Well, I’m sort of not. Maybe I am a little bit. Anyways. Minic Rivera contacted me a bit before SXSW to do this interview. As I love doing interviews, I accepted of course. It’s a pretty lengthy interview where I talk about alot of the same things I talk about…

  • Coworking in Philadelphia

    After a great weekend in suburban New Jersey with family, I jaunted over to Philadelphia to work with Alex Hillman and others from the Philadelphia entrepreneur community at Indy Hall, the successful coworking community that I’ve talked about recently, and that we are modeling our own community after.

Just about twenty-four hours have passed since Barack Obama addressed the nation on the issue of race and his relationship to firebrand pastor, Rev. Jeremiah Wright. If you’re American, you’ve probably heard the speech by now, or at least heard…

  • Qué Pasa con Latinoamérica y los RSS

    Parece que aquel viejo dicho de “La información quiere ser libre” no aplica en Latinoamérica. Un breve estudio de medios latinoamericanos con presencia en Internet parece indicar que la gran mayoría todavía no adopta un modelo de distribución abierto. Preparando el website inicial de NotiLat.com visité 115 websites de medios latinoamericanos en Argentina, Chile, Colombia…

It is a joint venture by Nick O’Neill and is backed by other prominent goons from the DC market, Frank Gruber and Jesse Thomas. All friends of mine, all respectable bloggers that are each doing great…

Skydivers can only accelerate to a certain speed before maxing out at a terminal velocity. For the geeky science type among us, the formula is for determining…
