Astronauts and Princesses Meme Goes Large

Thursday, April 26th, 2007

Uncle Dave, with his new found power of record­ing his own Pod­casts, invited me to yab­ber on about my week so far.
We sub­ver­ted the Uncle Mike hier­archy, and had a good show.  Thanks Uncle Dave.

The Way we (will) Work

Tuesday, March 6th, 2007

On ABC-TV’s Dif­fer­ence of Opin­ion: The Way We Work, there is an excel­lent view on the world of mod­ern “work”.  The world of work has changed from a mere 5 years ago, let alone 10 or 15 years.
IM (instant mes­saging), blogs, RSS feeds, live cal­en­dars etc all dra­mat­ic­ally change the imme­di­acy of inform­a­tion and access to […]

Uncle Mike: Munge Brother Pioneers

Saturday, March 3rd, 2007

I had com­pletely for­got­ten about the Munge His­tory of video pro­duc­tion.
In the early 1990s, when Adobe Premiere was a new thing, and Quick­time over­shad­owed any­thing Microsoft had until at least 1995 — we cre­ated this video.

Too Rainy for the Beach: off to educationau.edu.au

Saturday, August 5th, 2006

Spent yes­ter­day at the Education.au con­fer­ence “So What’s New”, I asked myself — so exactly what is new? I must admit to slight symp­toms of intel­lec­tual stock­holm syn­drome. Agree­ing with all points of view and res­ult­ing in a mush of thoughts, and no opin­ion.
Is Web2.0 new? Rel­at­ively. Is the Web new? Is TCP/IP new? Are […]

Mike Seyfang Logs Off

Saturday, March 5th, 2005

Chair­man Bill and CEO Steve have lost a valu­able mem­ber of staff in Uncle Mike. I have a dis­tinct feel­ing that product teams in Seattle will miss him more, if his­tory tells us any­thing. Nearly 9 years at Microsoft is an achieve­ment in these high velo­city career times.
Times like these trig­ger throughts and feelings […]

Munge Brothers

Thursday, March 3rd, 2005

I am up for it, Uncle Mike. Seems like the other Munge Broth­ers (Who are the Munge Broth­ers?) are up for it to. Only ques­tion is, when are you get­ting your ego-domain?
Inter­est­ingly enough, Mike’s son goes to Immanuel Col­lege — my old school. And plays in band, too. The world is an […]
