Forum Overview :: Links 2003 :: That guy was part of the original OMM community, dicklick

[quote name="Senor Barborito"]Seeing as he gave out his email address on OMM as clay@shirky.com - I think it's OK for me to say this. I hope so anyway. He's one of the most famous technology commentators of pretty much all time - many open source panels feature him or questions from him, one of Will Wright's better <a href="http://www.edventure.com/pcforum/wright.cfm">talks</a> had questions from him in it - and he arguably was the only person brighter than Monty to walk into the gay bathhouse. Slashdot did a great <a href="http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=01/03/13/1420210&mode=thread">interview</a> with him a few years back (so it's dated) that I enjoyed. I know that my original plans for Caltrops' forums stirred some interest from him as there was a weird inherent decentralized self-moderation to the system, but we haven't implemented anything like those because of time and resource constraints. Also, we don't have enough people to pull it off and I'm not really sure anyone would want to do it. Maybe as an experimental forum in the nefarious 'later'. --SB[/quote]
