Why do I enjoy geek dinners so much? Because you can really get to know people and their ideas better. Scott Beale took a bunch of photos. I like the one he got of me a lot. I look sorta crusty. That’s what happens when I don’t shave.
Steve Gillmor and I snuck away after the dinner to a local coffee shop where we stayed until 1 a.m. I finally got what he has been trying to tell us all. But I need some sleep to let it all sink in so I can explain it all. Sorry, I am stuck with a 486 brain and Gillmor is throwing 64-bit ideas at me.
That said, I have two days this week where I’m going to be thinking of nothing but search, gestures, advertising, and other memes that Gillmor put in my head. I can’t tell you where I am, or what I’m doing, but let’s just put it this way: next to my bed is a bag with a multi-colored logo on it. 😉
Scoble: you’re a rock star! Now flying to Paris

Microsoft has a rather colorful logo. It’s no surprise you’d have a Microsoft bag 😉

Robert: Arrrghhhh, you beat me! I meant the Windows logo. But now that I’ve had to clarify it’s lost all its funny!

Rolls eyes. Uncooked memes from Sir Gillbore with a side order of more searchy and web advertising rants. I am just so on my tiptoes.

I look forward to finding out what exactly Gillmore was trying to tell us — I thought I got it at the time, but the environment was not conducive to actually finishing a point. My take is here: Dave Winer’s Geek Dinner for Scoble.
Cheers!

[…] The highlight of the evening for me was the discussion that started just before the restaurant closed. We adjourned to the parking lot to continue until it became too cold and too late (although, apparently Robert and Steve Gillmor kept it going for another hour and a half, see Geek dinner Gillmortastic). It was a little challenging to get Steve Gillmor’s entire point , although I guess Robert finally got it after we all left. […]
