Jonathan Schwartz from Supernova 2004 - (Sneak preview for my blog readers. This program goes live on IT Conversations on Friday.) Decentralization is key to Sun's success. (Remember "The network is the computer?") And, no surprise, it's not all about the desktop. 100 million desktops were sold last year, but one billion wireless devices, and Jonathan says that market is all about Java. In this keynote from Supernova 2004, Jonathan also discusses "free" software. Linux? It's not free w... Always On: Online - Always On is streaming live audio/video in Real and Windows Media formats.

Think of it: There's no IT department, no Xerox machines, everything must be secure, and oh yeah people may be shooting at you. The i... RSS Feeds for The Gillmor Gang - Just added series-specific RSS feeds (with and without enclosures) to The Gillmor Gang weekly series. I'll be adding feeds to the other IT Conversations in the next few days.... The Gillmor Gang - Two great Gillmor Gang shows in the past week. I just posted the July 9 show with special guest Brendan Eich, chief architect, Mozilla Foundation. (Is this the start of Browser War II? Can Mozilla-based browsers corner 6% of the market by year end? And if they do, will they be targeted by the same crackers who go after IE flaws? Does the potential for "tag soup" sound like what Microsoft did to the browser market in 1996?)
And last week's show w... Dave, Doc & Chris - I interviewed Doc, who mentioned fellow Clutetrain author, Chris Locke, in passing. Dave took offense and invoked the Golden Rule. Doc responded. Here's the clip that started the controversy:
... Doc Searls: DIY-IT - Just posted an interview (MP3 and transcript) with Doc who explains the vision he's been speaking and writing about since early 2003: do-it-yourself IT (DIY-IT). He suggests that we view the construction industry and its vendors as a model for commodity component-based application development. He says this is a "corner of the market you're not going to see when you look at vendor sports, the supply side Really powerful things happen when the dema... IT Conversations Studio Upgrades - Lots of new audio goodies (picture and description) in IT Conversations Studio 2. I used the new mixer, the Aphex Compellor 320A and the Xstream/Xport combination to stream over a POTS line back to the studio for the Supernova 2004 conference last week. 15kHz audio over POTS with great listener reviews.... Kevin Werbach on Web Talk Guys - Rob and Dana Greenlee interviewed Kevin Werbach about this week's Supernova 2004 conference. You can hear the audio here (Windows Media stream).
You can hear the Supernova keynote presentations live on IT Conversations on Thursday and Friday. Post-conference archives and transcripts will also be available.... Suites vs. Best-of-Breed - There's a continuous ebb and flow in the debate over whether one should go for a best-of-breed component solution as opposed to the one-stop-shop suite. But it occurred to me that this distinction only exists in the world of proprietary software. In the open-source world, there's no such distinction. All components are available to all, and suites are nothing more than tried-and-true combinations of components such as the LAMP platform. Just some... Another Great Gillmor Gang Show - Are the venture investors back? Are they putting money into open-source software? What about Java--is it still an important platform? Should Sun make it open source? With special guest Mitchell Kertzman, Partner at Hummer Winblad Venture Partners, the Gillmor Gang tackles these questions as well as DRM, and of course RSS.
Next Friday the Gillmor Gang will be broadcast live from Supernova 2004. In fact, IT Conversations will be streaming live mo... Dave Winer on Weblogs.com - Dave shut down weblogs.com and has posted his explanation as an MP3 file. Also check out Doc Searls' comments.... Streaming Audio to Cellphones - Doc Searls got me thinking about radio (streaming audio) to handheld devices such as cellphones, and I spent some time last night discussing the opportunities with Steve Gillmor. I put together a little proof-of-concept demo. I've tested it on my Treo 600 (Sprint model) using Pocket Tunes. Sounds great, even through the speakerphone. If this works (or doesn't work) for you using other cellphones/PDAs and sreaming players, please let me know.... Gillmor Gang. - Just completed recording and posting a new edition of the Gillmor Gang, and I think it's the best one yet. Fascinating stuff from these guys that know it all. CA's CEO resigns. Sun announces open-source Solaris. As the PC becomes more powerful, will desktops become servers? Is the middleware market as we've know it dying due to open source (JBoss)? Does IBM just talk the open-source talk? How are vendors creating their open-source strategies?
Ar... SMIL, You're on the Internet - Jon Udell has posted a demo of random-access MP3 audio clips using SMIL and the Real Player. This is a terrific first step towards the goals of universal virtual clips and synchronized audio and transcripts.
I'd like to create a web form on IT Conversations that allows visitors to enter a program ID and a start time to generate a SMIL file. If I kept that file on our server (or revreated it dynamically) it could then be referred to by others (i.... Tim Bray Wants to Read - Tim has been listening to the latest edition of The Gillmor Gang but would rather be able to read it. We'll have a transcript online ASAP. Unfortunately, due to the three-day weekend, it's not going to happen real fast. I edit/mix the shows Friday afternoon and send the MP3s to the transcribers by midnight. Once we get the transcripts back, Steve needs to proofread and correct them, then I have to convert them from Word to XML and import them int... The Gillmor Gang - The Gillmor Gang is:
