This was a brochure for college students back in 1992 that advertised the Mac IIci and one of the first PowerBooks. Yes, I used to be an Apple shill! :-)

that's pretty awful rob. As Bender would say: "You come a long way, baby"
- Mark
I like how you cited your reason for buying a Mac as being "expandable". My, how times have changed.

LOL. you look too young, not 17:))

WOW! That's hilarious! What a cool thing to have.

Ah. 1992. I would love to go back in time to 1992 with a Macbook Pro or something, and show you some tech from the future and then take it off you and bugger off back to the future.

I was an Apple fanboi long before I was a Microsoft one. Funny that in 1993 I started switching to Windows.

I remember attending Apple's IIci announcement at the Universal Ampitheater in October 1990? Later in the day I met with Guy Kawasaki and discussed his ideas for a board game. I ordered a IIci on the developer's discount at just over $4600. I still have it and the copy of the check I used to pay for it.

Like the ad. I was testing FF email feature yesterday. Did you send from your phone or desktop?
- Nakeva Corothers
Interesting how Apple has always worked so hard going after the college/university student market, especially in the context of the way they dominate sales of computers over the $1000 mark now. It's not only targeting young minds, it's also targeting young minds that are disproportionately likely to be wealthier than average in their careers and invest in themselves.

News of RSS' demise are seriously premature. Take it away, and half of the web will come to a standstill.
- ianf ⌘
Wasn't it beautifully written, though?
- Michelle McCormack
Um, I don't agree either, but interesting that some people stopped using RSS. Not me.
- holly dunagan
Even if it's not being used by people knowingly, it is still one of the best plumbing technologies of mashups and the web and its very heavily used by people without them even knowing it.
- Dazza
It is a nicely written piece, if probably trying to be controversial.

A big thank you to @Mosso (Rob), @esayegh and team for all the help over weekend and @scobleizer for jumping in. Legendary customer service.
Awesome, glad to hear you're happy with us again. I didn't do anything, though. @mosso and others did the tough work.
- Robert Scoble
@scobleizer I was freaking out a bit at the time and it was long night beforehand. By the time I twitter-vented I'd got through to Paul and then Jeff in engineering and they were already helping us get on top of it. But once you mentioned it and Rob got involved it really helped the comfort level of The Test team themselves too. So I appreciated it a lot. :)

Creating mashups on the Google App Engine using Eclipse, Part 1: Creating the application - http://www.ibm.com/develop...
Tapping into social software can be a great way to add value to your application. Social networks are making it easier to take data and mash it up to create innovative new Web applications. However, you must still deal with all the usual issues of creating a scalable Web application. Now the Google App Engine (GAE) makes that easier, as well. With the GAE, you can forget all about managing pools of application servers. You do not have to worry about storing huge amounts of static content and dynamic data. Instead, you can concentrate on creating a great mashup. In this article, the first of a three-part 'Creating mashups on the Google App Engine using Eclipse' series, we see how to get started developing GAE applications, and we will take a look at how to use Eclipse to make GAE development even easier.

Building PhotoKast: Creating an iPhone app in one month - Home & Garden, How-To Guides & DIY, and software - http://www.scribd.com/doc...
In the spirit of Guy Kawasaki's Truemors experiment, we challenged ourselves to create a social networking iPhone app - from concept to development to distribution - in 30 days. This includes coding the servers, clients, spatial implementation (PhotoKast is an LBS app), etc. This document is a combination of what we have learned over the last four years in mobile development, and how that was applied to the making of PhotoKast. It is not a How-To guide on coding; it addresses the other parts of development, with an emphasis on design and planning. software development Developer MOBILE wireless iphone LBS web 2.0 social networking photokast ten23
