My Many Lives - What next?
I feel like a teen again. At 61 I wonder who I will become in the next few years. So I am going back to the big choice I made when I had to decide what path I was to take for the working part of my life. If I had to live my life all over again, I would have chosen this. I chose it then. I was ...
Thanks for all the support Rob-- it means a lot, always.

Thanks Rob-- We are just getting started. I think there are a lot of new layers on the web right now: Information web (Wikipedia, Google), Broadcast web (youtube, twitter, blogs), Social Web (Facebook, Disqus), Transactional web (ecommerce) and now we are building the latest layer which is the Shared Web. Like all the others, we have to start somewhere narrow/simple but over time we see it being as a different way of seeing/using the web alltogether.

Go Instant - See it working
Wow! Beyond the uses that Jevon speaks about I see this also making virtual work even more powerful. Why do you have to sit next a person when you can use this capability? I can this this as a powerful tool for teaching. I can see project work being done with this. What do you see?
Feels like you are starting life all over again these days Rob. Great way to be!

Brothers and Sisters - The best for me
Who knows you like a sibling? This is my sister Diana and me in April this year. 60 years of being best friends - confidants - defenders - supporters. We were always close We were wild things Largely ignored by our parents - brought up by nannies - we had to rely on each other as y...
The sentiment is certainly valid (have you read "Backwater"?) but this author isn't exactly promoting a constructive dialog imo. He's bullying and selectively calling out #s which I am not even sure are still valid as of last year.
Bigger question that comes to mind right away: Why the hell do we even have provinces anymore? We have technology and transportation infrastructure that should allow for a much more central government? At the very least our 3 atlantic provinces need to really consider consolidating "management" (read: politics)

PEI "A Government operated Theme Park" - Discuss
Call it the disequilibrium of equalization. Everyone knows about it, of course: the transfer currently of as much as $50-billion a year from provinces of higher productivity (especially Ontario and Alberta) to provinces with lower productivity (especially Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, PEI and Q...
"I am 60 in a few weeks. I am not the same person I was when I was 50. Nor should I be. People my age and older have a lot to offer younger people. But not in a transactional and busy way."
So true Rob, and our relationship over the last 10 years has changed in exactly that way.
