Another Jake Interview
Thought some of you might be interested to know that I was interviewed on another podcast, this time for the Architectonic blog.
I’ve not listened to it yet, so I can’t make any claims about how good the interview went! The podcast feed can be found here.
Thanks to Christopher for the fun time and all his [...]
Uh…….
What in the world is this??
Seriously, watch it to the end.
I’m dying to know what they’re saying….

The LEGO Ambassador Program is a community based program made up of adult LEGO hobbyists. The mission of the LEGO Ambassador Program is to develop a tighter [...]
I’m in another book
I’m in another book… well, sorta. I’m in the acknowledgements at least.
Yun Mi Antorini has been working on her PhD for a while and has just published a book with her findings (as well as a few other colleagues). Yun Mi and I have been talking about community concepts for years now, and it’s great [...]
Another cool wiki concept
Another cool wiki concept: wikiHow. Post your own how-to articles on a variety of subjects. Looks like it could be cool over time… we’ll see. A project like this is all about the content, of course, so how valuable a resource this turns into will be dependent on the community.
