Hanging out in the lobby of the Hyatt in Bellevue early this afternoon and I came upon this happy couple getting ready to be married later today.  Permanent link to this item in the archive.

Weddings are womens' affairs. We men are at best props or spectators. The prize is a woman. The judges are women. I look forward to male-bashing from the usual feminazis.  Permanent link to this item in the archive.

That said, the women at this wedding, so far, are incredibly beautiful. What a show. Everyone is wondering if there there will be wifi in the hall but I'm not bringing my laptop or camera, just bringing my eyes and ears. I am not wearing a tux either. Just a suede jacket, slacks and a tie, and at that I feel horribly over-dressed. I do admit to trying on a suit at Nordstrom's, and there was a time believe it or not when I wore a suit to work every day, but that was a long time ago. Now, even at a wedding of two dear friends, I still dress what many would call casual. Much love to Ponzarelli, she's a real sweetie, and a courageous one at that. Chris is a very very lucky man. Hope he knows it.  Permanent link to this item in the archive.

Doc Searls: "I'm far more capable, energetic, optimistic and eager to change the world at 59 than I ever was at any earlier age." Permanent link to this item in the archive.

Andrew Shebanow illustrates how an apparently open XML-based format can still be fairly proprietary and provide lock-in for the designer. I sent a pointer to this article to Jon Udell, Microsoft's newest evangelist, asking for comments.  Permanent link to this item in the archive.
