The Orange Chair

William Gibson said: the future is already here. It’s just not very evenly distributed.. The same thing could be said about Web 2.0 and how are clients are using it. For our clients, Web 2.0 is already here…its just not very evenly distributed.

Some of our clients are already looking at building out Web 2.0 infrastructures to support significant efforts in social networking. Others are exploring some of the technologies associated with Web 2.0 for the first time. And some are saying: I hear alot about Web 2.0 but I am not sure how it can benefit me? There is no one level that everyone is working from.

Our goal is to evenly distribute Web 2.0. Or at least to help everyone make progress wherever they are. Even the clients that are much more advanced could find new and better ways to use Web 2.0 and social networking approaches and technologies to do things.

Conference reports are a great way to help share knowledge and justify
the expense of conference travel, but attendees are often so busy
learning and networking that they don’t have the time to send detailed
conference reports from the road. Postponing the report-writing to the
plane trip back could mean many lost insights and lost momentum.

Liveblogging can help. With a little preparation, conference
reports can be posted and shared with coworkers and the rest of the
world within ten minutes of the presentation. Ethan Zuckerman and Bruno
Giussani have put together a collection of terrific tips for conference bloggers, which you should read before you head out to your next conference.
