Toronto’s tech sector is on fire!
When I first arrived in Toronto in 2004 I found very little in the way of Tech community. I was told that the Dot Com Crash had pretty much annihilated every shred of enthusiasm this city had left to offer.

You have to look at the value proposition: reduce costs, improve productivity. Look back at […]

Michael Arrington (Techcrunch) reports:

Google may finally be preparing to re-launch wiki service Jotspot, nearly a year after it acquired the company.

Google acquired JotSpot last year, bringing it into it’s over widening portfolio of office-related services. Jotspot was not only a decent wiki, it contained a veritable suite of groupware features capable of giving any vendor […]

I’ve accepted an invite to speak on two panels (Thurs-Fri) at Office 2.0 in San Francisco, California this week:

Cultural and Technology in Enterprise 2.0 rollouts (hosted by Jevon MacDonald).

This will explore the cultural nuances related to designing, developing and deploying Social Software in the Enterprise. Being a wiki kind of guy I’ll bring some perspectives […]

10.2c Imagery and recall
The Buzan Centre promotes many memory aiding techniques. The underlying theme to these systems is to incorporate the creative and logical functions of the brain. By synthesising informational, perhaps abstract facts with experiences we are able to commit them to memory. This is related to an issue raised in [MIM] that questions […]
