A New Leaf for dp

01/31/2012

One of my resolutions for 2012 is to write more. Specifically to post here on dp at least once a week, on average. In order to meet my goal of a post a week, I have to branch out into new topics – probably exposing a little more of my self in the process. I’m good with that and I hope you are too.

Reckoning 2011 and Resolving for 2012

01/23/2012

2011 was a fascinating year for me: I changed jobs, got divorced and fell in love (twice). I moved from the suburbs to the city and started riding to work. I was interviewed by Juniper, took 16 trips to 13 different cities, joined TheHundred Denver, and was kicked out of Canada. I started speaking more, working less, and spending more time with my kids. I published my second book, co-authored my first Internet-Draft, filed my first patent application, and re-discovered my spirituality. Oh, and I turned 30…

Personal Content Networks

I’ve been thinking recently about how and where I share information and particularly how many of those applications and websites share with each other. There are of course a huge number of websites and applications on the Internet today that deal with user generated content. I participate in a decent amount of them myself. Some [...]

IPv4 – Is the sky falling?

01/11/2011

There are folks who have, in the past, cried wolf with regard to IPv4 free pool depletion and the need for IPv6 adoption.
