Dvorak on Myth of Disruptive Technology
John Dvorak is the greatest high-tech columnit. Here he finds easily holes in the Clayton Chritensen Disruptive Technology story...but.... Clayton is the king of the class room. If you saw hime lecture on this stuff, you'd go for it, John, or see it in a little different view. What John rightly says is that Clayton's book, full of examples of distruptive technology, is full of holes. John, you are right, this is not an end-all and be-all suits-all-sizes formula.But John, did you notice print advertising slipping into the abuss, and the Web distrupting the media world as we knew it? Clatyon can tell you about what happen in the steel industry, which is similar. It didnt go away, it went away from Pennsylvania and Gary. -PCMag Aug 17, 2004

SOA what!
Moderated a Webcast on Service Oriented Arhcitecture with Mike Rosen and Mike Sawicki. SOA seems to be a case of something old something new something borrowed..and may be something that just might work better than what has come before. As for the webcast medium: For now, I prefer having a live audience in the room. You'd think it would be like radio to do a webcast ... July 13, 2004
