Learning About The Latest and Greatest
I’m at DEMOfall 05 today and tomorrow. Some of what I post about it will be slightly off-topic for this blog, but becoming better aware of emerging technologies and companies undoubtedly helps many of my readers (and certainly influences my own efforts at innovation), so I’m going to share anyway.
The basic concept of the conference is that companies get 6 minutes (strictly enforced) to demonstrate their product to an audience of fellow geeks, reporters/bloggers, and venture capitalists.

It’s a fascinating way to see interesting new ideas. Stay tuned for updates on what I’ve seen and heard.
