If you're Jewish... Happy New Year!

A new slogan: I'm cruisin for some schmoozin! That's what I was doin today.

PC WEEK: Java Lobby takes on IE 4.0.

A new Mac website. It's twisted!

Got RealAudio? Listen to last night's DaveNet session. They lost the first half-hour but it's cool. I'm listening to it now. Here's a web page you can look at while you're listening.

The live session last night was great!

  • Cornelius Willis (Microsoft) talked about HTML as the best cross-platform user interface. I don't like this idea. We know how to do GUIs. Instead of bringing HTML to the desktop, we should be networking the desktop interface. Vector graphics in web browsers is the way to smoothly transition to this view of the net.

  • We didn't do the Frontier 5/Win demo, I didn't feel right doing it after the discussion.

  • Next time I'm going to do it differently. I have some ideas...

  • I'll be at the Last Saturday's party tonight.

  • I'm on the closing keynote at 5PM, run by Craig Cline.

  • Thanks to the Seybold folks for sponsoring DaveNet, and to CNET for webcasting it.

  • And thanks to the 200 or so people who were there!
