Ideas In Motion

Every week -- sometimes daily -- I post new ideas on these pages of Ideas in Motion.

Mobility & Location -- Lately, I've been writing quite a bit about the iPhone and about the possibility of mobile platforms with location-awareness and speech recognition built-in -- we're almost there with platforms like iPhone, Android, Adobe AIR, and SilverLight. More >>


Interface Inputs -- thoughts on how we interact with technology and systems. Interfaces themselves are becoming increasingly human-friendly, and track brain/machine interface elements that allow granular control over software activities. More >>


Future of Collaboration -- social input on the web, collaborative media building. Recent Update: Seattle Business Monthly covers my user-generated product effort at WhitePages.com. More >>


Idea Proliferation -- a continuing fascination with how ideas seep into culture. Recent updates include notes on peak oil and GenX retro-farmers, political commentary and pagan sub-cultures. More >>


I've also written Beyond Microsoft: a book about software innovation, based partially on my career at Microsoft and several other large software companies. During the initial writing of the book, I maintained the Beyond Microsoft blog, to which I still occasionally post commentary.
