Reboot is over and if there is something I am disappointed about that would be that "we" did not participate for / with each other as last year. It is not a conference where "the organiziers" make it happen, but we.

If you look at the title of this blog, it is called bloxpert - for being something like an expert in blogging and all this other stuff - but the important thing is the addition: "we should be challenging".

People coming to reboot - as long as they don't fall into the mainstream definition - are about challenges and achieving something; not for themselves but for all of us. It is not so much about the money but about the rest around it.

At the moment I am sitting after some nice shopping in Copenhagen in a cafe before fetching a train, but I would like to point out the following:

If you have been at reboot 8, help me to do the postboot. I do feel bad about not having the time aka not taking enough of my time to deliver a better podcast for you. Ping me through skype (nicole.simon) or take the contact page and send me your data so I can get back in touch with you and make the postboot part of the conversation about / of reboot and how we really can make something different out of it.

I am not sure about how I want to pursue this best (if it will be just audio or more text as well); but help me to "challenge" you. :)

Tom Armitage's talk is titled "What social software can learn from Homer, Dickens, and Marvel Comics".

With him I talk about what this means, narrative impulses and parallel expression of yourself and why people at reboot may be more playful than others. Read his speaker entry on the wiki or visit his blog.

While preparing the rest of the interviews I do have here - everything will be online tomorow morning because then I do start travelling to CPH ;) - I would like to give you the chance to tell your fellow rebooters "Why are you coming to reboot or who would you like to meet"? Send me an audio file to neezee under gmail.com and I will include it in the audio I finish problably midnight (at GMT+2) ;)

Or just write about it on your blog and make sure to use the reboot8 tag!

Robert Willim talks about being an ethnologist, his Phd about the rise and fall of Framfab, organizational challenges, if there are differences between the dot com bubble and today, why many people are still using dinosaur applications like Word, and his suggestions on reading materials.

His reading tips included "Lev Manovich on visual culture and new media and Andreas Wittel on "network sociality". He adds: I think he has only published pieces on this in journals... but the stuff may be "googleable"

Robert is given a talk about "I'm taking a ride - curve surfing and speed mania"

Euan Semple talks about his work at the BBC and the grass root approach of turning them towards 'modern technology', what he today is passionate about, the human desire to "connect" and the change in the way we see ourselves, the dead hand of control of global IT and what motivated him to talk about

"There's something going on here that is bigger than any of us. (A hopeless idealist considers hyperlinks, organisations, life, the universe and everything.)"

Going on about Enlightenment, 'the obvious', why it is appropriate (and efficient) to engage and connect even in a business context, about trust in people you hire, why he gets less comfortable with mass media.

Jeremy Keith, usually on conferences to talk about code and javascript, wants to praise the basic building block of the Web: the hyperlink.

Favorite quote:
What brought you to web design / javascript?
Because I was playing in a band

It is Reboot time again! I think most people who where there last year just want to be there this year. And of course my first interview guest is again organizer Thomas Madsen-Mygdal :)

Over the next three days I will put out some more interviews in a farely short manor, but my time was restricted due to the organizing of the Podcastday (see last posting).

Enjoy the interview!
