Dwight Silverman of the Houston Chronicle has resurrected his blog at the Houston Chronicle. That’s good news! (Dwight, where’s the RSS feed?) In one of his first posts, he points out that I was at Demo yesterday but not updating as frequently as he wishes I would have.
I plead not guilty by reason of strategy. Yes, I could have sat in the front row with Jason and Marc and Scoble and Buzz and the rest of the live-blogging crew, but frankly they were doing a better job than I could dream of doing. If you wanted the play by play, Blogging Demo was the place to go, which was why I pointed to it. (And now, I presume, the domain gathers dust until the next DEMO conference, in the fall?)
Anyway, the point of this site is to try to wrap some context around what I saw the past few days. I’ll pass along my impressions of a few products that caught my eye, but I’ll also try to pull together the larger lessons of the conference.
Ed: It was great seeing you at DEMO! Blogging the show live was a unique experience and it was pretty amazing to be surrounded by so many talented bloggers. Thanks for sharing your insights and going into a bit more depth about some of the stand out products we saw.
Here’s a link to a great shot from Renee’s DEMO album of the blogger corner with Dan Bricklin sitting in:
