I know you probably won\’t do this. In fact you may already have!
But you\’ve been tagged over at my blog.

He says if you want HDNet Fights to compete with UFC you better stop dancing with the stars. I\’d like to hear your response to that knucklehead.

As for tech, the future looks bright.

Maybe from where you\’re sitting on Billionairs Olympus it looks like the Internet is dead and technology won\’t pull us through as it did in the past. However, it\’s the best of times right now!

Back in the 70\’s and 80\’s when the Big Iron world pretty much ruled the roost, the same thing was being said at that time! And then what happened? Grass root opportunities started popping all over the place like it\’s starting now!

Maybe you\’re looking at the comfortable infrastructure and watching it fossilize! Web 2.0/3.0 tech is coming up and you better get this party started otherwise you\’ll miss the next BOOM as the Big Iron companies such as DEC and IBM did in 1991! I know, I was there!

What many are missing is that the model has shifted yet again! You\’ll have to look for your cheese in a new technological location!

One big word to focus upon is Community! As in Community Programming as well as \”Through the Web Programming\” and \”Enterprise Rapid Development Frameworks (eRDF).\”

If you\’re still trying to pump out a project with Java then the train has already left you behind!

Start looking at technologies such as Joomla and Drupal. Look at Ruby on Rails! The days are gone for grunt level projects where a gaggle of Klingon wanna-bees, slam code for 6 to 9 months because it is in no way efficient!

If you can\’t sit down the first day, and have a website with configurable widgets that you drag and drop into place talking to your database, YOU\’RE DOING IT WRONG PRINCESS!

So, Dead? I don\’t think so! Look where the cheese has moved and you\’ll find a ground swell of the next boom!

Seeya at the top! ;)

Mike

The tech bubble of the late 90\’s was predicated on more and more technology. Technology was what was stimulating the marketplace (obviously too much of a good thing isn\’t always favorable, as was the case with the bubble).

Advancements in tech sectors such as software and networking (as in the Cisco kind, not the Facebook kind) have exorbitantly increased the productivity at work. Most firms cannot function without this technology.

Things like YouTube and Myspace have always been around to distract individuals. But I\’ve never heard of any company boycotting Poland Spring because all the time wasted at the water cooler was detrimental to overall productivity.

about the mavericks.
i think you should make a trade for louis williams.
hes a young developing player who would be able to be used interchangable at the sg and sf position with josh howard, which i think would complete the starting lineup. and this would still enable you to keep jet and stack as big bench contributors.

If only you knew where I am responding from, and the economic conditions here, you would not think the internet is boring. It is amatter of perspective or frame of reference.!!!
