Beginning 2010, ending Doctor Who

So, we’ve ended the naughts and moved on to the respectable and grown-up sounding double digits. We’re now in the age of space colonies and hovercars, aliens hanging about*, and underwater cities, and we’d better enjoy them since we’re all dying in two years… Or maybe that’s just the imaginings of modern-day sci-fi, where everything »

Adobe MAX 2008

Adobe’s MAX conference has finally come and gone for this year, so here are my reflections on it – highlights, things that could have gone better, etc. (all with the benefit of hindsight, of course…) While I was in town a little early to catch up with people, we got the event started on Sunday night »
