Great series from Tim Bray on technological successes and failures. Methodology Winners - a good list in my mind. The one thing I would also add is "servers", and an emerging winner of "services". Losers - an ok list, but there's lots to choose from. I would disagree with video on demand, it happened but was implemented as Tivo instead of how people thought. I would have added Microsoft Bob as a representative attempt to make standard computers approachable. This field has been a very bad failure. Finally, a proposed set of predictors. This is an interesting list to contemplate. 10:00:26 PM     trackback []

David Weinberger elegantly captures my experience and thoughts to date on social software. The wedding invitation analogy is so resonant it will be forever stuck in my head. 9:49:41 PM     trackback []
