Most conference I go to tend to just fade away at the end, RSA ended on a bit of a bang. The theme for the show was “Change” and the last keynote was all about the impact of security. It began with a video interview of Lulzsec founder and FBI informant Hector Monsegur talking about […]

RSA Day 4 – Keynotes and Sessions
I had a great plan today to make my way thru south hall for chats with tons of companies. I also had a few interesting sessions I wanted to be at first thing in the morning. I had a scheduled a quick customer meeting and a quick touch base with a team member I had […]
RSA Day 3 – Time on the Floor
Today I sat thru multiple interesting sessions, and one really bad one. Okay, that’s wasn’t fair, it wasn’t bad, it was just badly presented and managed. And one of the sessions I sat in was boring, until the Q&A period, at which point a full press attack occurred. I then spent the afternoon walking the […]
RSA Day 2 – Hacking the sessions
As day two of RSA started I was in customer meetings until after lunch time, and then a long (LONG) drive back to the conference. The cool thing about RSA is that the content is seriously overwhelming. I missed a few items on Monday’s post, so I want to start by talking about a few […]
RSA Day 1 – The Mini-IoT Conference sessions
So I am at the RSA Conference this week, and it was huge! I had been warned that this is one of the biggest conferences that hits San Francisco each year, but I didn’t believe it. Having said that, I am amazed at how small the mini-conference is. It is being run by the Trusted […]
Apple has sprung!
A group of co-workers and were able to sit in a large conference room and watch hesterday’s Apple event. I typed furiously to capture my notes and thoughts, while still doing day job activities at the same time. I am wondering how much the U.S. Economy was impacted by the anticipation of Apple’s announcement, anyway, […]
Spring Forward in Anticipation
Today is Apple’s big “Spring Forward” event. It will start at 1pm EDT (10am PDT if you are nearer Apple’s campus). I am looking forward to replacing my old “Apple Watch” – (AKA iPod Nanon on a 3D Printed watch band). I’ve been looking at the WatchKit SDK, but have not yet written any meaningful […]
CES 2015 Day 4 – And it’s a wrap!
Wow, the final day is over and today I spent half the day in customer meetings… To put it mildly, they went well. A huge thank you to my teammates at this year’s CES! The rest of the day I spent on the show floor just looking to catch up on some cool tech I […]
Day 3 – Meetings and a few cool ideas
Wow, as long as this week is at CES it also seems to run by very fast. Today I went back to a few of the interesting booths I was at before, and added a few new ones. The repeats were at some of the auto companies – Mercedes-Benz had removed their really cool self […]
CES Day 2 – (Few Exciting Items)
I really don’t see how people can go to CES year after year. The level of small incremental changes, followed by the number of “me too” copy cats is crazy! Today more than half my day was in customer meetings and customer specific actions, so I did not get to see much, however, I don’t […]
