Microsoft misses estimates and writes down $900M on Surface RT
I think the news is going to get worse for Microsoft. Xbox1 is the one product I'm watching. If it doesn't do well, then I'm not sure what Microsoft will do to stem the bad news as the Age of Context arrives over the next 18 months. Google is about to...

I love this photo of my three kids and Maryam Ghaemmaghami Scoble. Little Ryan's face, in front, is just priceless. By the way, Patrick Scoble was always unwilling to go on rides like this until he was goaded by a girl to go on one. Seems like he's enjoying...

Glass app developer of the week: Cecilia Abadie. Her "Genie" app is quite nice and her passion infects everyone. Welcome to "the borg." You can put me on vacation, but you can't take away my love of new startups and developers. Just don't tell my bosses...

All Good Things
I agree with Sascha's words about Tim Stevens . He was always a nice guy to me and was doing a good job. I wonder if it wasn't good enough, though. The Verge has definitely done a better job of gadget coverage lately and I wonder if management isn't grasping...

How does Scott Jordan get nearly every rich and important person attending the Allen Conference to wear his clothes SCOTTEVEST from TEC ? That is very cool. I think I'll wear some of his stuff to Universal Studios tomorrow. Why? I need all the pockets...

When I was attending San Jose State back in the early 1990s one of the students made an impression by putting a $10,000 lens onto his credit cards. That student was Brad Mangin and he's gone on to be one of the best sports photographers alive today. .His...

CNN
It's interesting listening to the NTSB, who just concluded its first report (NTSB Chairman Deborah Hersman told a press conference a few minutes ago that they had already listened to the flight data recorders and presented this timeline: 1. Seven seconds...

Twitter / Search - sfo
More on the SFO crash: My Facebook friend David Eun (Samsung exec) was on the plane that crashed at SFO. He posted video right after he escaped. Unfortunately he posted that to friends only, so I can't properly reshare it. I'm seeing so much misinformation...

Erik Boles says this is one of my best videos ever. It is an interesting discussion about our contextual future and the changes it'll bring to our culture with Obscura Digital. Every day I pinch myself that Rackspace Hosting pays me to meet innovators...

Doug Engelbart's office at SRI International. Where the mouse was invented. It's as empty as our hearts are, after his passing this morning due to kidney failure. For those who don't know what a real visionary is, go read about Doug on Wikipedia at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Douglas_Engelbart...

This book, about what the author Scott Berkun learned by working for Matt Mullenweg, founder of Automattic, the folks behind WordPress.com, is really great. Finally a business book that has something new to say about the future of work. I hope the book...

Google's Q2 2013 earnings come in light on revenue and profit
Google's profits are gonna be stagnant for several quarters. Why? Advertising is tapped out and we're moving to mobile where advertising just doesn't work all that well. Google's innovations (Google Glass, Driverless Cars, Contextual OS's) won't bear...

The biggest mistake you all make on Facebook.
The biggest mistake you all make on Facebook. I see so many people who are smart and connected like Francine Hardaway, Julien Blin, and Sarah Lacy making this mistake, along with other people. What is it? They have privacy set wrong so that their public...

Duck Duck Go's Post-PRISM Growth Actually Proves No One Cares About "Private" Search
Did NSA news change our behavior? Danny Sullivan does a great analysis. Love Duck Duck Go, though. One problem with being private, though, is Google Now works better when you do all your searches on Google. Ahh, in the age of context we will be incentivized...

Should Foursquare's Founder Help Company Morale by Using Foursquare Less?
I'm using Foursquare less and less and caring whether I'm a mayor or something like that less and less every month (if I ever cared all that much before). It's sad, because I really love Foursquare for the tips. That said, Foursquare is actively pissing...

Steve Gillmor - FriendFeed
Apple made me a little jealous (I still have mostly Macs at home and still am an iPad fan). But Google's openness is bringing me features and experiences that Apple didn't match today (while it did show stuff that others don't yet do, like keep thieves...

A more in-depth look at Umoove so you can see why its face/eye tracking is a game changer. Will Apple announce anything as interesting today? I'll be watching and we'll have a Gillmor Gang at noon to discuss if it came up to the bar that this Israeli...

Edward Snowden has blown the whistle on this presidency. You have to wonder: Will Obama see out...
Yup, I was wrong. This story has a chance of totally making Apple's announcements this week look very boring indeed and due to what Edward Snowden has said about what the NSA is doing this story is going to become Obama's defining legacy, even if he survives....
