I still remember the day in 1999 when I followed a set of links that changed my career. I had been getting Jake Nielsen's Alertbox columns for a while when <a href="http://www.useit.com/alertbox/990919.html" rel="nofollow">this one</a> showed up about user-focused Internet architecture. A lot of it, in retrospect, sounds like web 2. There's a link at the bottom to a Dave Winer piece describing his new authoring platform called Manila that included the feature <a href="http://www.scripting.com/davenet/1999/05/24/editThisPage.html" rel="nofollow">Edit this Page</a>. And at the bottom of that article was a link to a website called <a>">Cluetrain</a>. I've been working to help orgs and cos converse with markets ever since. Talk about a reward for reading to the end! So true, Tim. I still remember the day in 1999 when I followed a set of links that changed my career.

He almost immediately started a private blog with the RISD community and Maeda recently started posting at <a href="http://our.risd.edu/" rel="nofollow">a public blog</a>. One of the posts is from Davos. Obviously, a complete waste. I'm frankly a little appalled at what BT lets you get away with, JP ;-) And BTW, you deserve more than one weekend a week. Two classics. Thanks. Our local Rhode Island School of Design recently swiped John Maeda from MIT to be their new president.
