I'm now subscribed to your blog! Although our conversation did affect my post, it wasn't a direct result. The feeling I've been getting over the past couple of get-togethers is that no one cares about what's going on in corporate America. The focus is always on start-ups and consumers. Corporations aren't necessarily fun or cool, but they spend millions of dollars on software every year. The folks at our dinners want to wave away points that I make about corporate software usage as if businesses don't matter. I'm just saying that businesses are the bread-and-butter of tech developers and we shouldn't ignore them or trivialize their needs. This is not something you've expressed, but other people have. <a href="http://et.cairene.net/2006/02/10/getting-better-berkeley-bloggers-dinner-2/">http://et.cairene.net/2006/02/10/getting-better-berkeley-bloggers-dinner-2/</a> I was glad to see that you found me Robert.

Since meeting him several months ago, he has started blogging. He took exception to some arguments that were made last night regarding technology and change. He may have misunderstood where I was coming from — enterprises cannot throw their investments in the lake; many businesses are five+ years behind the technology curve and that is actually OK.
