"If I had my way I wouldn’t do annual reviews, if I felt that everybody would be more honest about positive and negative feedback along the way. I think the annual review process is so antiquated. I almost would rather ask each employee to tell us if they’ve had a meaningful conversation with their manager this quarter. Yes or no. And if they say no, they ought to have one. I don’t even need to know what it is. But if you viewed it as meaningful, then that’s all that counts."

"I've never understood the point of this "debate." RSS is the plumbing of the social web, and it's doing a fine job of it. Does it have some competitor that I'm missing that's fighting to replace it? This whole thing feels like technical semantics that most end users couldn't possibly care less about. Twitter is enabled by RSS (for crying out loud). It's just another RSS reader: every person you subscribe to is just another feed, no? It takes RSS as input, and produces RSS as output. And as far as Google Reader goes, it was pretty late to the stable of RSS readers. There's no shortage of alternatives for those seeking a different experience. Overall, I think readers in general have a ways to go to reach and enable a bigger swath of users."

I think it did it. My work machine is an order of magnitude slower, so that will be a much better test. :)

Or you could just be like me - wait for your over-secured PC to lock up/crash under the weight of all that concurrent/conflicting I/O pressure, and voilà - Firefox has barfed om yet another profile and started over with a new one.

"Since that first day back in 2006, when I realized the opportunities that social media presented me, my company, and my government, I have evolved from an opportunist to a leader (I hope!), and I can only hope that I’ll continue to evolve in the years ahead. Here are the seven evolutionary stages that I went through as a social media evangelist – I’m interested in hearing if you find yourself going through a similar evolution, or if you skipped a few steps and went straight from an amoeba to advanced human "

Very well described. I think I'm in a combination of 4, 6, and a little 7--trending out of 4, slowly.

“It was funny to see FriendFeed, which is full of people who don’t like Twitter, just consumed with conversation about Twitter,” she said. I don't know about that one!

Who thought a talking head with a piece of paper could make for an interesting 8 minute video? A little personality and story goes a long way. I like the simple flipchart format, very clean and memorable.

Bikeways map for all of Maricopa county. Not too shabby, but where's the KML for Google Earth? I need to hook these guys up with Portland Metro...

The first post from colleague, Laurie Buczek, on her new blog. She is leading Intel's charge into social computing from within IT, and I'm doing whatever I can to make her (and the rest of the company) wildly successful.
