@unclenate : Oops, think I misunderstood what you asked. No, the Engelbart event was not Webcast AFAIK. Which I guess is a little ironic.
At the Engelbart event at Stanford today, it was striking how few people had their laptops out. They were actually paying attention.
@winequester : Yeah, the more you view it, the more amazing it seems. Engelbart sure deserved his two standing O's today.
@unclenate : Sorry, had limited Web access at the event today. Here's a link to the Engelbart demo: http://bit.ly/BLxy
Oh, Engelbart's here! after demo, he gets a loooong standing ovation.
money quote in Engelbart demo: "Let's do some collaborating!"
In demo, Doug talks about connecting 20 computers acr US @20 KB/second! Audience titters.
I get tingles every time I see this seminal demo--they're showing clips now.
"Collective IQ" was/is Doug's key idea, not just mouse. I.E., today's Web!
This is one of the few tech gatherings lately where I don't feel old. Alan Kay's here, Larry Tesler, i think every computing pioneer
"This is old school," one older guy on shuttle bus here said.

@mmasnick : As a sometime dub fan, that version of Dark Side of the Moon sounds pretty interesting... is it Pink Floyd itself who does it?
@StevePR104 : Good idea, direct-message is better than protecting updates.
Some people follow me but block their updates. Seems kinda rude. If they need to be secret about some stuff, how about a 2nd, private acct.?
