The business case for mashups

October 5th, 2005 • Related • Filed Under

I’m speaking at Web 2.0 today on Mash-ups 2.0: Where’s the Business Model?. It should be fun.

BTW, Web 2.0 is jam packed with people. Sessions are SRO. This is the second conference I went to in the past month (Microsoft PDC being the other) that sold out. I’m hoping this is a sign that the tech industry is on an upswing.

PS: I promise I will blog about something other than when I’m speaking real soon. I have some thoughts surrounding Web services and mashups that I’m going to try out in the panel. Nothing brilliant, but some thoughts I had from working on a little application. If I don’t get shouted down, I’m going to put them out there.

    Does that mean you’re not going to mention that you’re a panelist at SDForum’s Emerging Technology SIG next Tuesday (October 11) ?

    Don’t worry. I’ll get to that, too. :)
