Like Microsoft, we're rolling out a new vision for the Web, one that's based not only on open standards, but also the power of desktop apps. Man jumps out of plane with no parachute. Plane cuts its engine and goes into a nosedive. Door stays open. Before both crash and die, the man goes back into the door and straps himself in.
Plane powers up, regains altitude.
Why DaveNet changed I got email from Steve Jurvetson and Tim O'Reilly and many others urging me not to change the form of presentation of DaveNet. I appreciate these comments, because it implies that someone is reading what I'm writing. But email delivery of newletters is a very small part of what we do. And in the future, while there will be a way to receive my writing via email, if you just read my words in email, with no context, it will not make any sense at all. The comments I receive back from DaveNets, when I receive them, usually are missing the context of the piece.
