via techcrunch.com. Remember, Google Sidewiki ? I thought at the time that it would make a great way to help make intranets, including internal Web-based apps, more social and now it looks like Jive Software have provided this ability natively in their latest release.

Software leaders who are building applications based on Large Language Models (LLMs) often find it a challenge to achieve reliability.

It will be a few days before I have a “non photos” RSS feed for you to follow, forgive the interruption with non-work related stuff. But, it was a big weekend.

Geopolitical risk is now at the top of the agenda for CEOs. But tracking it can be difficult. The world is more interconnected than ever, whether in terms of economics and supply chains or technology and communication. Geopolitically, however, it is becoming increasingly fragmented – threatening the operations, financial well-being, and security of globally connected companies.

Larry Lessig is an accomplished author, lawyer, and professor, and until recently, was one of the leading active public intellectuals in the Internet space. But as I wrote in my review of his last book ( Is Our Republic Lost ?), in the past few years Lessig has changed his focus from Internet law to reforming our federal government. But that doesn’t mean Lessig has stopped thinking about our industry, as the dialog below will attest.
