Mobile and Device Connectivity - Entrepreneur27 Technology Symposium Final Thoughts
Can your website connect to every mobile device or to your company's live inventory system? How about your customer's neural network?

Last year I saw Howard Rheingold at SXSW and he spoke about cell phones being the most prevalent computing device. Think about it.

Blummy Your Social Web
Currently my browser toolbar is full! I have so many bookmarklets that in order to use my toolbar bookmarks I have to scroll to the left to see most of them. Why is this? I have four weblogs and subscribe to at least ten social software and bookmarking sites like del.icio.us, flickr, and blinklist. While I love the idea of bookmarklets and they save me lots of time I currently have bookmarklet overload. Finally, someone has come up with an intelligent and easy to use solution using AJAX.
