that.
He said that Java 1.5 was teh solution. He admitted that Sun
had dropped the ball on the client side - but that there were 350M

Earlier this month, the
Young Republicans of UConn invited WWE wrestler The Ultimate
Warrior to speak at their school, but things got a little out of
hand: (
via ComicCon) "People started yelling at
Warrior as he spoke. Warrior at one point started yelling and stomping
his feet, telling everyone to not talk while he is and to ask
questions after his speech. Officers were eventually called in to calm
things down. The group that brought Warrior in, the College
Republicans,
apologized heavily for bringing Warrior
in after the speech ended. Statements that really got the crowd upset
were when Warrior said
queering don't make the world work and
told an Iranian girl to
get a towel." A week later, The
Ultima
te Warrior has strong, often-hilarious words for hecklers and
Young Republicans alike. Not content with threatening college
students, Ultimate Warrior
also
threatened libel against SomethingAwful last week.

I wanted to
blgoi something about Padmasree Warrior - the Senior Vice President
and Chief Technology Officer of Motorola.
She was on the wireless panel at the AlwaysOn Network
Innovation Summit last week and the only person who cared about
the end-users and what really matters.
I'd say that whatever she's doing - it's gonna probably come out
pretty cool. She said that Motorola didn't care what kind of
technology platform they needed to support - they'd support them all -
they were platform agnostic.
That
was my line - back in the 80's.
So I like her already. She's one smart cookie - and I don't have
to say there aren't many female CTOs around - either.
Now we get to see what else Motorola has up their sleeve.

Supernova '05: "Perspective: Jonathan
Schwartz"
06/24/2005 09:23 PMSince yesterday morning I've been hanging around at Supernova and I've been
taking some fairly intensive notes, but I've not yet had the
opportunity to write any of it up. Over the next hour or so, I hope to
put up some of my reactions from the last day and a half of the
conference. I'm a little unclear as yet whether I'll be posting the
full notes that I've been making for each part of the conference. I
guess we'll see. They're not always of the most enormous value.
For people who don't know, the core idea behind Supernova and the
concept of the conference i decentralisation and the effects of
network. I guess the metaphor is of the aftermath of the exploded
centre, where top-down governance and control gives up its power (by
choice or by force) to the new many-to-many network where power and
agency operates at the edges. The conference takes that fundamental
concept and looks at its application across a whole range of different
subject areas - from social software and personal publishing, search,
telecoms, gaming, business, media as well as around meta-areas like
how individuals deal with this radically different vision of the
world. I think by necessity this creates a kind of weirdly diverse
conference that attracts radically different types of people whose
relationship to each other isn't always easy. So you've got the
business people, the alpha geeks, the legislators, the military, the
policy people and the academics talking about things from very
different angles. Which means that any individual part of the audience
is likely to be frustrated at some points, bored at other points and
insanely fascinated for the rest of the time.
I'm going to start with a brief bit of coverage of a discussion
between Jonathan Schwartz of Sun Microsystems and Kevin Werbach of
Supernova. The two major areas of this discussion were really about
about whether or not Web 2.0 was a reality (the answers to
which were relatively anodyne) and a much more interesting discussion
about future business communication with weblogs.
I kind of take my life in my hands a bit every time I go off on a
discussion about weblogs after six years of writing this site, but
sometimes it really does seem that there genuinely still more that can
still be said around the edges. Here are a few really telling quotes
(probably mistranscribed) from Schwartz that I noted down during his
piece:
I've learned a lot of things. If you think about what a
leader does, you're fundamentally a communicator. You have to be able
to communicate to the marketplace to the people who report to you -
there is no efficient way of doing that than using the network - using
the internet. If you want to be a leader, I can't see you surviving
without a blog. It's like being a leader without having e-mail or a
mobile phone. You still find them very occasionally, but it's moving
away. It's very rare.
Authenticity is absolutely paramount. Getting poeple to
write your blogs is ridiculous. It's like hiring people to read your
e-mail. You might be able to get away with it, but it's kind of
like pushing a rock up a hill...
When I first heard Schwartz talking in these directions, I
genuinely didn't know what I thought about it. In my experience
weblogs inside organisations don't tend to be terribly interesting or
useful and only a limited number of people participate with them. I
was going ready to treat his comments with a similar scepticism
(particularly given some of his earlier comments about authentication
and the future of the web which were pretty banal), but he blew my
suspions out of the water with some of his later comments. When
challenged about whether he was only talking about communicating with
the company internally or doing it in full view of the public, he said
something really interesting.
For a start, he said that in the near future he wanted to start
doing all his communications via his weblog. Then he moved on to
addressing this internal / external dichotomy. He mentioned a
particular case where particularly good employees had their names and
photos put up on an intranet celebrating their achievements. Instead
of this he suggested that it should be done completely in public. He
said that some people had suggested that this might mean that the
staff concerned would just be poached by other companies but he
responded that good people would always be open for poaching. And
here's the interesting bit - he said he had no interest in an
internal weblog, that he wants it to be completely
transparent and that while he was aware that this approach and
celebrating his employees achievements in public might to his
competitors knowing what he was doing, it also meant that their
employees could see it too - and they can then use that to decide
if he's a more attractive leader with better policies and a vetter
vision of the future.
This is a view of the world that I really like - it doesn't limit
your ability to have particular specific projects operating under the
radar, but it's an acceptance that large-scale strategy and
communications about your company as a whole is never secret.
And rather than treating that as a weakness or as a problem, it turns
and faces it directly. It let's people see the way you run your
company and encourages people to question and interrogate it -
creating a virtuous circle of improvement and self-awareness inside
organisations that raises the whole level of the debate. For
everything else you might say about Sun, this is a noble idealistic
and inspiring aspiration. Very cool.

that Microsoft had lost sight of customer priorities.
"Microsoft's recent unilateral decision to discontinue support for
Windows 98 and other products as of December 23, 2003 offers users a
lesson, and an opportunity," Schwartz wrote. "It's a lesson in how a
company with legendary market dominance can lose sight of customer
priorities, and force an unnecessary transition onto a customer base
already paralyzed with viruses and security breaches."

agonized over the

A combination of scavenger hunt, road rally and mental gymnastics, The
