"On the same day Netizens fumed over the trademarking of Web 2.0 (R), lawyers for O'Reilly were beating a path to the USPTO to file for a trademark on MAKER FAIRE, lest some Irish scallywag try to co-opt that catchy phrase for a conference." I'd hazard a guess that it's more than 10 years since you've been called a scallywag! http://yro.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=06/08/22/1529227&from=rss Hi Tom

In the case of the CTO I'd say it was a case of 'go or be pushed'. I downloaded the search data and there is pretty scary stuff there Thanks for the kind words James.

See RTE's mention of the <a href="http://www.rte.ie/business/2006/0822/aol.html">story</a> ? It says the CTO was sacked. In any case, it was a hell of a screw up! BTW , love the blog and becoming a regular reader ;-) <a href="http://jamesleejnr.blogspot.com">Jim's Blog</a> Hi Tom!
