Here’s a first person account of what happened in New Orleans. Someone from New Orleans just started a new page and wrote it.
Reeebooting!
At Reboot with all these great people — Adam, Henrik, Erik, Stefan, Alexis, Joel, Ulla, Jyri and many more — realising that (sadly?) 99% of all the interesting talk takes place between the talks! Aside from the great keynote by Doc Searls, there’s a lot of talk about things we already know all too well; blogs, creative commons, tags, wikis, etc. Of course it’s nice to to hear people like Jimbo Wales explaining the philosophy that spawned Wikipedia (interesting factoid: ~2% of Wikipedia users provide ~75% of the content!), and David Heinemeier Hansson talking about how he created rails; but all in all, these talks really serve more like wrap-ups or receipts of things we already know in and out.
Anyway: summer is here, I’m rebooting. Fantastic to be here!
