I am entering the third day of my great adventure to NYC at Web 2.0 Expo. Here are a few notes to capture some of the thoughts and events I have experienced.
DAY 1
Actually that would be night 1, since I didn’t arrive until 6:30 and it took an hout to get to my hotel via SuperShuttle. The one and only order of business was to make it to the TechSet party. I was able to find some friends there and have some great conversatons. Really enjoyed talking to Thomas Vanderwal and Daniela Barbosa.
DAY 2
I spent the majority of my time hanging around the Web2Open, the unconference associated with the conference. I led a conversation about Enterprise 2.0 (what else). I also ran into an old friend from business school Neal Goldman, who is here with Eluma, that has a product that he describes as del.icio.us on steriods. I plan on checking it out (unfortunately still no Mac OSX client). And for my most interesting adventure of the day: attending Yankees game! As I was leaving the expo, I ran into Andrew Hyde and he had an extra ticket for the game, so I figured WTF. My first (and last) trip to Yankee Stadium. Interesting fact, the entire group that went together was only conected by Twitter.
Day 3
Still early in the day, but I did attend the keynote this morning, where Tim O’Reilly and Clay Shirky spoke. Tim’s main point was, if you are going to do something, do something that matters! A realy good presentation. I hope to give a better summary later. Clay talked about the fact the information overload has really been around for a long time, the problem we are really seeing now is “filter failure”. It made me think.
That’s it for now…
